Angus,

I'll sponsor you.

Please have a quick read:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers

Let me know when you have completed this step.

Comment 3 Steven Dake 2014-02-26 18:30:17 UTC
Couple notes:

1) Recommend changing the source URL to the openstack tarball location:
http://tarballs.openstack.org/python-ironicclient/python-ironicclient-0.1.2.tar.gz

2) I would recommend adding a build requires for python-setuptools

I would recommend removing:
rm -rf python_ironicclient.egg-info

2.a) I believe the egg-info is needed

# Let RPM handle deps
sed -i '/setup_requires/d; /install_requires/d; /dependency_links/d' setup.py
2.b) hacking setup.py via sed is evil and prone to breakage


# Remove the requirements file so that pbr hooks don't add it
# to distutils requires_dist config
rm -rf {test-,}requirements.txt

2.c) removing upstream files to hack around pbr dependencies not wanted in the runtime can be fixed in other ways

And instead handle that with patches.  Take a look at how other python clients are done for OpenStack.  Its pretty straight forward.  (fedpkg clone python-novaclient for example)

3) You don't need to remove the buildroot
rm -rf %{buildroot}%{python2_sitelib}/python_ironicclient*

Otherwise looks pretty good.  After these issues are fixed up, I'll provide a complete review.

Comment 4 Angus Thomas 2014-02-27 12:01:19 UTC
Hi Steve,

I've read through the package maintainer's docs, and built an updated package, based on your feedback so far.

Spec URL: https://github.com/agroup/tripleo-rpm-spec-files/blob/master/ironicclient/python-ironicclient.spec
SRPM URL: http://athomas.fedorapeople.org/ironic/fedora20/python-ironicclient-0.1.2-2.fc20.src.rpm

Thanks,

Angus

Comment 5 Angus Thomas 2014-02-27 12:52:58 UTC
Another update, adding support for %{__python2} and %{python2_sitelib} on EL6.

Spec URL: https://github.com/agroup/tripleo-rpm-spec-files/blob/master/ironicclient/python-ironicclient.spec

SRPM URL: http://athomas.fedorapeople.org/ironic/fedora20/python-ironicclient-0.1.2-3.fc20.src.rpm

Comment 6 Steven Dake 2014-02-27 14:54:48 UTC
Angus,

Couple things

First your patches are directory diffs, which is ok, but IMO it makes more sense to do the following:

clone a copy of the ironicclient.

Apply the 0001 patch
git commit -a
(Write a nice changelog)

Apply the 0002 patch
git commit -a
write a nice changelog

git format-patch -2

This will give you a tidy changelog in the patches and allow people to use git am to apply the patches.

The first patch will look at the variable:
REDHATIRONICCLIENTVERSION

I believe this needs to be sed-ed into the file as is done in the nova client spec file.  I recently did this for one of the os-*-* tools and it was necessary to do the sed, or the installed package doesn't work.

The requirements for removing the pbr runtime requirement come from the openstack fedora developers - this is not something a typical python packager would do, so keep that in mind during further reviews of other people's packages.

Just one minor nitpick as well, typically %doc goes at the top of the files section.  Although this is not mandatory or documented, it is a typical common convention and since you need to remake packages, it might not hurt to fix that up.

Regards
-steve

Package Review

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

Generic:
[x]: Package is licensed with an open-source compatible license and meets
     other legal requirements as defined in the legal section of Packaging
     Guidelines.
[x]: License field in the package spec file matches the actual license.
     Note: Checking patched sources after %prep for licenses. Licenses found:
     "Apache (v2.0)", "Unknown or generated", "*No copyright* Apache (v2.0)".
     3 files have unknown license. Detailed output of licensecheck in
     /home/sdake/fedora-review/1069882-python-ironicclient/licensecheck.txt

The following files have no copyright header.  Since the package license is clear, these aren't clear problems, but it would make sense to file an upstream bug to add a license header on these files:

python-ironicclient-0.1.2/ironicclient/client.py
python-ironicclient-0.1.2/ironicclient/exc.py
python-ironicclient-0.1.2/ironicclient/shell.py

python-ironicclient-0.1.2/ironicclient/tests/test_shell.py
python-ironicclient-0.1.2/ironicclient/v1/shell.py

The following are generated by the build and no license changes are necessary
python-ironicclient-0.1.2/doc/source/conf.py
python-ironicclient-0.1.2/setup.py

Rpmlint (installed packages)
----------------------------
# rpmlint python-ironicclient
python-ironicclient.noarch: E: explicit-lib-dependency python-httplib2


this is a false negative error.  rpm doesn't handle explicit lib dependencies for python packages.

python-ironicclient.noarch: E: non-executable-script /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ironicclient/v1/node_shell.py 0644L /usr/bin/env

recommend filing a bug with upstream to remove /usr/bin/env.  Since this is a library, I am pretty sure the need to specify the environment is not necessaary.

Comment 9 Steven Dake 2014-03-18 18:05:25 UTC
Angus,

Package is looking pretty good.  Things blocking approval:
1. use of %files in changelog (just change to "files section"
2. mixed use of tabs and spaces in spec file

Things not blocking review:
1. Recommend filing upstream bugs to remove /usr/bin/env from library files as indicated in Comment #8.
2. Recommend filing upstream bugs to add license headers to files as indicated in Comment #8.

Regards,
-steve

Comment 10 Angus Thomas 2014-03-26 13:40:14 UTC
Thanks Steve

I've posted a new version, taking account of your latest comments:

Spec URL: https://raw.github.com/agroup/tripleo-rpm-spec-files/master/ironicclient/python-ironicclient.spec

SRPM URL: http://athomas.fedorapeople.org/ironic/fedora20/python-ironicclient-0.1.2-5.fc20.src.rpm

I've addressed the blocking items from Comment 9. I'll push patches upstream for the non-blocking items, though they may not be merged until the Juno dev cycle.

Comment 11 Steven Dake 2014-03-26 13:46:52 UTC
Angus,

re Juno dev cycle and patches, that is fine - idea is to get upstream to fix them at some point, doesn't have to happen immediately.

New spec looks good.
