Description Kalev Lember 2015-04-25 16:17:21 UTC
Spec URL: https://kalev.fedorapeople.org/compat-libcdio-paranoia1.spec
SRPM URL: https://kalev.fedorapeople.org/compat-libcdio-paranoia1-10.2+0.90+1-1.fc21.src.rpm
Description:
This is an ABI compatibility package in order to make some 3rd party codecs that link against libcdio-paranoia work on F22. 3rd party repos that ship them have been lagging behind and currently only ship binaries built for F21; this package here provides required ABI compatibility in order to make them work in F22 as well.

The intention is to retire and obsolete this package as soon as the 3rd party repos have caught up with F22.

For reference, here's the diff to the F21 libcdio-paranoia package: http://paste.fedoraproject.org/215478/

I'd like to keep the diff to the original package down to the minimum in order to be able to easily share fixes when needed, so if possible please don't pick on the indentation and things like that that are also present in the original F21 package.

Comment 2 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2015-04-25 22:17:46 UTC
Package looks fine at first blush. One basic question before going any futher: are there any special guidelines for compat packages? A quick google search only turns up an old post from Toshio [1].

fedora-review has nothing interesting to say, I'll not paste the full output here, except for rpmlint.

Comment 4 Kalev Lember 2015-04-25 23:10:36 UTC
Thanks Zbigniew!

I don't know of any explicitly written down guidelines and Toshio's post is probably the best we have.

The rule of thumb that I've always tried to follow is to use the compat- prefix when I need ABI compatibility, but don't want newly built programs to be able to link with the old ABI. This is the case here.

If I'd additionally want API compatibility and to be able to link against the library, then I wouldn't use compat- and would go with a regular parallel installable libfoo1{,-devel}, libfoo2{,-devel} naming scheme instead.

Comment 5 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2015-04-26 00:00:32 UTC
Yeah, I don't see anything else on this subject in the guidelines. Package builds fine and seems to provide the old .so version correctly. Let's hope we don't need it for too long.

Package is APPROVED.
