Description Elliott Sales de Andrade 2019-02-15 03:35:12 UTC
Spec URL: https://qulogic.fedorapeople.org//R-askpass.spec
SRPM URL: https://qulogic.fedorapeople.org//R-askpass-1.1-1.fc29.src.rpm

Description:
Cross-platform utilities for prompting the user for credentials or a
passphrase, for example to authenticate with a server or read a protected key.
Includes native programs for MacOS and Windows, hence no 'tcltk' is required.
Password entry can be invoked in two different ways: directly from R via the
askpass() function, or indirectly as password-entry back-end for 'ssh-agent' or
'git-credential' via the SSH_ASKPASS and GIT_ASKPASS environment variables.
Thereby the user can be prompted for credentials or a passphrase if needed when
R calls out to git or ssh.

Comment 2 José Matos 2019-02-15 17:19:29 UTC
The license is correct and appropriate.

The spec file is simple and very readable.

fedora-review has no significant complaint and so the package is approved. :-)
