Koji scratch build: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=24072434

rpmlint output:
smc-tools.x86_64: W: no-soname /usr/lib64/ld_pre_smc.so
3 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 1 warnings.

The library is only meant for LD_PRELOAD use-case, not as a linked library, so lack of soname should be OK.

Comment 1 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2018-01-09 19:03:51 UTC
 - Shouldn't you still run ldconfig in %post and %postun? https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Shared_Libraries

 - Use %make_build for parallel building:

%make_build CFLAGS="-Iinclude %{optflags}"

 - Please add comments explaining what the patches do

Comment 2 Dan Horák 2018-01-10 12:49:51 UTC
Updated spec URL: http://fedora.danny.cz/smc-tools.spec
Updated SRPM URL: http://fedora.danny.cz/smc-tools-1.0.0-2.fc27.src.rpm

Changes:
- use make macro in build
- comment patches, they were sent to upstream
- use distro LDFLAGS during build

Regarding ldconfig, it should not be necessary, because the *.so file isn't used as a regular shared library (you won't link against it), but is used with LD_PRELOAD mechanism only.

Comment 3 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2018-01-10 14:36:26 UTC
All good, package approved.

Comment 4 Gwyn Ciesla 2018-01-11 14:58:49 UTC
(fedrepo-req-admin):  The Pagure repository was created at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/smc-tools. You may commit to the branch "f27" in about 10 minutes.

Comment 5 Dan Horák 2018-01-16 15:09:19 UTC
Closing, imported and built. The patches will be merged in next upstream release.
