Package Review ============== Legend: [x] = Pass, [!] = Fail, [-] = Not applicable, [?] = Not evaluated [ ] = Manual review needed Issues: ======= - Package contains BR: python2-devel or python3-devel Currently, the package has `BuildRequires: python`, but it should be one or both of `BuildRequires: python2-devel` or `BuildRequires: python3-devel` - If the package only supports Python 2, then it needs to indicate that in a comment in the spec file. If it supports Python 3, then it must build the Python 3 version as well and only the python3-aexpect package may ship aexpect-helper - Non-blocking, but instead of `%{python_sitelib}/aexpect*`, use %{python_sitelib}/aexpect/ %{python_sitelib}/aexpect-%{version}-py%{python2_version}-.egg-info This has the benefit of intentionally failing a build if an unexpected file starting with "aexpect" turns up in that location. It's better to be explicit about what ends up in the RPMs. - The URL is wrong: it points to the Avocado documentation. It should probably just be https://github.com/autotest/aexpect - Drop the %defattr line from %files. It's not needed on Fedora or any currently supported version of RHEL. - Where does the version 1.2.0 come from? I don't see that in the tarball or upstream anywhere. - The commit doesn't match the latest HEAD or any tags. Why pick that one? It needs to be in a comment. - Upstream includes a script called `selftests/checkall`. Why isn't this run in %check?. If it doesn't work or isn't meaningful, it should be added to the spec but commented out with a note about why for future packagers. - in %description, drop the "Aexpect is" lead-in. It doesn't need to duplicate the name. ===== MUST items ===== 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.

Thank you for the detailed and helpful review comments. The selected commit and version (1.2.0) were unofficial in upstream. However, an official tag for that commit was added just today (https://github.com/autotest/aexpect/issues/14). I believe I addressed all of your other issues. I also attempted to include support for both Python 2 and Python 3. The tagged version 1.2.0 of aexpect does not support Python 3--although the current HEAD does. The upstream maintainers have suggested a version 1.3.0 will be coming soon. Thus, in the interim, I updated the package version to 1.2.1, set the source to use the current HEAD commit, and included a patch to update the version string embedded in setup.py.

You can't do this. It's not safe to name something 1.2.1 because upstream could eventually opt to release a 1.2.1 that is entirely different from what you called 1.2.1. Then users of this package will be confused. Please drop the version hack. If you want to release with the python 3 support, you need to follow the naming guidelines at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Versioning#Snapshot_packages The result will end up looking like: aexpect-1.2.0-1.20161109git%{shortcommit0}.fc26 > > New Spec URL: https://merlinm.fedorapeople.org/aexpect-1.2.1.spec > New SRPM URL: https://merlinm.fedorapeople.org/aexpect-1.2.1-1.fc24.src.rpm > New Koji scratch build URL: > http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=16378886 OK, a few more comments: 1) I should have thought of this earlier, but aexpect-helper is probably important to operation. So we should ship a version of it in the python3 subpackage, renamed to python3-aexpect-helper (at least until the support becomes stable). It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to rename the python2 version to python2-aexpect-helper and carry a symlink for the /usr/bin/aexpect-helper name. This would be future-compatible whenever we decided to swap over to python 3 as the preferred version. If this is getting too complicated, feel free to skip Python 3 support entirely for the first pass here. It can be a quagmire. 2) The master name of the package should be python-aexpect, not just aexpect. The subpackages it produces are correct. 3) The order you run the %py2_install and %py3_install macros matters. Because both builds provide /usr/bin/aexpect-helper, whichever one builds second will overwrite the one that builds first. In this case, that means that you are actually installing the Python 3 version of the binary into the python2-aexpect subpackage. Oops! (If you follow my symlink suggestion in 1), you'll want to do the rename between the %py2_install and %py3_install calls and create the symlink last.)
Thank you for the additional helpful review comments. I missed the snapshot versioning guidelines. I have now corrected that, along with addressing all of your other comments. I have kept Python 3 support, but am only including the Python 2 version of /usr/bin/aexpect-helper with no renamed versions or symlinks to it--I'll address that when Python 3 support is no longer considered experimental. Regarding the order of running the %py2_install and %py3_install macros, I found that the second one run does *not* overwrite the first /usr/bin/aexpect-helper. Just to avoid the unexpected, I changed the spec to run %py3_install first, remove aexpect-helper, then run %py2_install so only the Python 2 version remains to be go into the python2-aexpect subpackage.
