Description: 

statsmodels is a Python module that provides classes and functions for the
estimation of many different statistical models, as well as for conducting
statistical tests, and statistical data exploration. An extensive list of
result statistics are available for each estimator. The results are tested
against existing statistical packages to ensure that they are correct.

This version handles better the matplotlib based tests

Comment 2 Bruno Lavoie 2014-01-16 14:10:19 UTC
You have my vote.
I'm really interested in that package.
Thanks

Comment 3 Alec Leamas 2014-01-19 04:05:44 UTC
OK, I'll review this one.

Package Review
==============

Legend:
[x] = Pass, [!] = Fail, [-] = Not applicable, [?] = Not evaluated


Issues:
=======
- If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the license(s) in
  its own file, then that file, containing the text of the license(s) for the
  package is included in %doc.
  Note: Cannot find COPYING in rpm(s)
        Why is LICENSE.txt is removed?
  See:
  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/LicensingGuidelines#License_Text

- License file installed when any subpackage combination is installed.
  Part of problem is that LICENSE.txt et. al. are removed.  Another is that
  the subpackages does not require the base package and thus can be installed
  without license info. Either require the base package or (IMHO better)
  duplicate the license files in the subpackages.

- Package consistently uses macros (instead of hard-coded directory names).
  Personally, I don't see the need for the upname macro. It just makes things
  harder to read. Also, since the python3 stuff isn't functional I think
  it's better to remove for now, re-introducing it once it works. No blockers.

- Add a -a option to the cp command in %build to preserve timestamps.

- The find command has a '-delete' option which is somewhat cleaner.
  No blocker.

I remove those files because they are installed in the library directory, /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/statsmodels and are redundant with the LICENSE.txt in %doc

statsmodels/LICENSE.txt seems to be an older version of LICENSE.txt 
Anyway, I have copied it and it is in %doc with LICENSE.txt renamed as LICENSE.statsmodels.txt

I will ask upstream to remove/update this file

The LICENSE.txt files are duplicated in %doc for pythons-statsmodels and python-statsmodels-doc

upname is upstream name. As the python guidelines requires to preappend python- python3- to the package name (which is usually the same as the upstream name), upname is very handy

I'm testing python3 packages of the missing dependencies.

Updated, thanks

New SRPM and spec with the fixes mentioned above

Comment 6 Alec Leamas 2014-01-20 13:49:01 UTC
Hm.. basically, this looks fine. But: we still need to add ./statsmodels/datasets/COPYING to %doc, don't we?

Comment 7 Sergio Pascual 2014-01-20 14:36:03 UTC
Yes, I have added COPYING and README,txt in datasets as README.datasets.txt and COPYING.datasets in %doc

Spec URL: http://guaix.fis.ucm.es/~spr/fedora/python-statsmodels.spec
