Please rename the package to the upstream name - libnss_nis.

Comment 2 Matej Mužila 2018-02-02 11:54:37 UTC
Hi,

this package replaces the nss_nis package, previously a subpackage of glibc.
I think, it would be better to stay with the name "nss_nis". There are also other nss modues, that use this name scheme (nss_<something>).

I've already discussed the package name with Florian, he thinks that "keeping nss_nis would be okay".

I think we absolutely should keep the name for the binary RPM.  I do not have a strong opinion regarding the source RPM, but lean to nss_nis as well.

>I think we absolutely should keep the name for the binary RPM.

After thinking about it a bit more I agree with keeping the name of the package as nss_nis. Changing it to libnss_nis would have some positives but there are also some other issues that would pop up.

Since the package only has a single binary rpm it does not make sense to me to rename the srpm either. So lets keep it as it is.

Will continue with the review.

Comment 5 Petr Kubat 2018-02-05 09:44:05 UTC
Actually, Matej can you rebase the package against latest upstream release first? I see Thorsten just released version 3 a few days ago - this versioning will make more sense with the versioning we are going to use for the rpm package.

The packaged version is 3.0 already. As long as I know, there is no more recent version yet.

Now that I am looking at the contents of the source rpm you are right. I got confused by the 2.0.0 version on the shared library file, but it is versioned exactly the same way in upstream.

I guess this is a nitpick but it would be nice to have the library version match the release.

Comment 9 Petr Kubat 2018-02-05 12:36:03 UTC
There are some obsolete m4 macros (please file a bug against upstream for them) but otherwise lgtm.

Also be aware that there is a F28 change for removing ldconfig scriptlets:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Removing_ldconfig_scriptlets

According to the change doc you can just remove the scriplets entirely if the package is only for F28+

Comment 10 Gwyn Ciesla 2018-02-05 13:10:00 UTC
(fedrepo-req-admin):  The Pagure repository was created at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nss_nis

Comment 11 Petr Kubat 2018-04-24 09:00:19 UTC
The nss_nis package has been built for f28 so I guess this can be closed now.
