Version:        4.10.5

%description
This library provides a framework for developing console applications using
Python and curses.This framework should be powerful enough to create everything
from quick, simple programs to complex, multi-screen applications. It is
designed to make doing the simple tasks very quick and to take much of the pain
out of writing larger applications.

Comment 4 Felix Schwarz 2019-12-13 15:29:58 UTC
a few quick notes:

- %license missing
- use %pypi_source instead of manually building the URL
- Missing spaces in decription ("curses.This", "applications.There") - also you might want to shorten the description a bit (imho only)
- "%{pypi_name}-%{version}-py?.?.egg-info" -> this will break when there is a Python 3.10 - you can use "%{pypi_name}-%{version}-py%{python3_version}.egg-info"

I noticed that the last release was 4 years ago and there is no public source control. Do really want to package this library? Seems to be dead upstream (so a Python 3.9 transition is on you).

Comment 5 Felix Schwarz 2019-12-13 15:31:23 UTC
Even though Robert-André approved the package please fix the missing %license file. (This is required as per Fedora packaging policy!)

Comment 6 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2019-12-13 15:48:59 UTC
Sorry I missed it.

Comment 7 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2019-12-13 15:52:17 UTC
Weird that fedora-revuuew didn't warn me on the missing LICENSE. Please add it to the files section.

Cut down the descriptions too:

Comment 8 Neil Horman 2019-12-13 18:20:26 UTC
yes, I'll take care of that prior to importing the package, thanks!

Comment 9 Neil Horman 2019-12-13 18:45:57 UTC
Also, yes, in regards to the upstream maintenence, the project moved to github, and is actively maintained there

Comment 10 Neil Horman 2019-12-13 18:47:13 UTC
fixed requested items locally, will import that version soon

Comment 11 Neil Horman 2019-12-13 18:52:45 UTC
ah, you didn't hit the + on review, heres the new spec file and srpm for you to review:
Spec URL: https://people.redhat.com/nhorman/python-npyscreen.spec
SRPM URL: https://people.redhat.com/nhorman/python-npyscreen-4.10.5-2.fc30.src.rpm

Comment 12 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2019-12-13 23:05:50 UTC
 No:

URL:            %pypi_source
Source0:        https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/n/%{pypi_name}/%{pypi_name}-%{version}.tar.gz

%pypi_source go in Source0:

URL:            http://www.npcole.com/npyscreen/
Source0:        %{pypi_source}

Package approved. but please fix this before import.

Comment 13 Neil Horman 2019-12-15 21:03:32 UTC
will do

Comment 14 Gwyn Ciesla 2019-12-16 14:29:05 UTC
