Spec Name or Url: http://www.auroralinux.org/people/spot/review/alleyoop.spec SRPM Name or Url: http://www.auroralinux.org/people/spot/review/alleyoop-0.9.0-2.src.rpm Description: Alleyoop is a graphical front-end to the increasingly popular Valgrind memory checker for x86 GNU/ Linux using the Gtk+ widget set and other GNOME libraries for the X-Windows environment. Features include a right-click context menu to intelligently suppress errors or launch an editor on the source file/jumping to the exact line of the error condition. A searchbar at the top of the viewer can be used to limit the viewable errors to those that match the regex criteria entered. Also included is a fully functional Suppressions editor.
* missing BR gettext * "X-Desktop-File-Install-Version=0.4" should not be in alleyop.desktop * s/X-Windows/X Window System/ in %description * GConf2 --makefile-uninstall-rule code missing in %postun * scriptlet Requires for GConf2 and scrollkeeper missing Run-time test from console (with Rawhide), steps to reproduce: 1) $ alleyoop valgrind: Bad option '--logfile-fd=15'; aborting. valgrind: Use --help for more information. 2) Click "Run" button, enter "/bin/bash", click "Execute".
-3 has all these items fixed. Tested with /bin/bash on valgrind 3.0 in rawhide. SRPM: http://www.auroralinux.org/people/spot/review/alleyoop-0.9.0-3.src.rpm SPEC: http://www.auroralinux.org/people/spot/review/alleyoop.spec
* Fails with a different syntax error for me (rawhide): $ alleyoop valgrind: Bad option '--leak-check=false'; aborting. valgrind: Use --help for more information. $ rpm -q alleyoop valgrind fedora-release alleyoop-0.9.0-3 valgrind-3.0.0-3 * In a moment of distraction, I made the mistake to click "Open", then selected /bin/bash (also the small /bin/unlink to reproduce), and the gui became unresponsive, with strace showing what looked like an endless loop (polling fds). I know "Open" is supposed to load log files, _but_... * I also noted that once I entered something into the "Run" dialog, it is impossible to choose a different program without leaving/re-starting alleyoop first, since clicking "Run" just re-processes the old program.
Someone on IRC acked about whether alleyoop had been submitted and a search turned up this review, stalled for eleven months now. Any chance of anything happening here?
That was me :) I just finished updating the package to 0.9.2 and it seems working fine on my FC5. I could be interested in getting this into FE, it does a nice pair with the other package I submitted (bug 191473), so if nothing moves on I could try to hijack it :)
bug 191743 ...
Hijack away. Just make sure you test the cases that Michael Schwendt pointed out.
OK. the new review request is bug 201417
