Spec URL: http://jjames.fedorapeople.org/python3-random2/python3-random2.spec

Description: This package provides a Python 3 ported version of Python 2.7's random module.  It has also been back-ported to work in Python 2.6.

In Python 3, the implementation of randrange() was changed, so that even with the same seed you get different sequences in Python 2 and 3.  Note that several high-level functions such as randint() and choice() use randrange().

Comment 1 Jerry James 2014-06-09 22:58:21 UTC
It turns out that even the python 2 version adds some keyword arguments to some of the random functions, and that the ZODB test suite uses those keyword arguments.  Since we need both python 2 and python 3 versions of this package after all, I am changing the name of the package and the bug.  New URLs:

Comment 2 Jamie Duncan 2014-07-01 23:10:21 UTC
I'm not an official reviewer, but I'll try and help out where I can. 
I almost wish there was something to say here:

* the only things found by rpmlint are 2 lines it thinks are misspellings in the long description

Checking: python-random2-1.0.1-1.fc20.noarch.rpm
          python3-random2-1.0.1-1.fc20.noarch.rpm
          python-random2-1.0.1-1.fc20.src.rpm
python-random2.noarch: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US randrange -> rand range, rand-range, hydrangea
python-random2.noarch: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US randint -> ran dint, ran-dint, rand int
python3-random2.noarch: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US randrange -> rand range, rand-range, hydrangea
python3-random2.noarch: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US randint -> ran dint, ran-dint, rand int
python-random2.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US randrange -> rand range, rand-range, hydrangea
python-random2.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US randint -> ran dint, ran-dint, rand int
3 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 6 warnings.

* source matches as expected
* there are no other dependencies to confirm
* py3 check logic in the spec file looks good

the rpms build cleanly on my fedora 20 test machine and both the py2 and py3 packages look good to me (i did a simple import and dir() of the root module since I'm not an expert in this subject.

Question:
The spec file denotes the Python license used for distribution. I know that's a valid license, but I'm not sure what the requirements are but I think at least a refrence to the license at FSF or similar?

Comment 3 Jerry James 2014-07-07 20:48:00 UTC
Thanks for the unofficial review, Jamie.  More eyes are always helpful.

Those misspellings in the long description are actually the names of python functions, so they are not misspelled after all.

As for the license, there actually is no requirement to include anything if upstream did not, as in this case.  See the paragraph immediately above "Subpackage licensing" here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines?rd=Packaging/LicensingGuidelines#License_Text.

Comment 4 Mukundan Ragavan 2014-07-31 02:43:39 UTC
Let me take this. I will review this at the earliest tomorrow evening.

If someone wants to take, feel free to assign the bug to yourself.
