Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 146741
Problems and comments about the perl-Cache-Cache specfile
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:59 EST
Matthias Saou, A couple of notes about the perl-Cache-Cache specfile: 1) there is at least a BuildRequirement missing (Digest::SHA1) 2) the first comment line mentions perl-Convert-UUlib 3) the spec should use the macro %{perl_vendorlib} 4) the spec should use the requirement 5) the epoch for redhat perl 5.8.0 should be 2 (not 0) For a specfile compliant with fedora.us module packaging see: https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1079 (comment 7) The perl specfile template is available in the fedora.extras fedora-rpmdevtools package. Do you want me to supply a specfile patch? Regards, jpo
I've looked at your latest .src.rpm from the fedora.us bug and merged in everything relevant I could find, which should fix the 5 points above too. Please look at the current CVS spec and let me know if anything more needs to be changed.
BTW, if you'd like to become owner of the perl-Cache-Cache component, just let me know, as that would be fine by me. I'm the current one because it's a package that wasn't available from fedora.us when the move to Extras was done, and as I had it on freshrpms.net, mine got imported.
Matthias, Feel free to assign me the maintainership of perl-Cache-Cache. As I'm already maintaining it for fedora.us, it won't cause much trouble. Would you mind if in the near future I import the fedora.us specfile? (I already maintain several perl specfiles using the same layout) Note: Right now I still don't have write access to the Extras CVS, but I'm expecting to have it in the near future.
Matthias, I finally have Read/Write access to the Extras CVS. Do you still want me to take maintainership of this package?
Sure, go ahead. I also don't mind if you overwrite the current spec with one you already had, as long as there are no regressions. Also, make sure to request a bugzilla component owner change too.
