Comment 1 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2020-07-18 14:27:28 UTC
 - Please detail how you generated the Sources 

Source0:    rpm-git-tag-sort-498f832d-dirty.tar.gz
Source1:    rpm-git-tag-sort-c-vector-498f832d.tar.gz

 - make → %make_build

 - You should set Fedora build flags with %set_build_flags, and make sure that the Makefile respect them (CFLAGS)

 - make install root=%{buildroot} → Use DESTDIR instead of root in your Makefile, and then use %make_install

 - Provide a license file and install it with %license in %files. A README.md as %doc would be nice too.

%files
/usr/bin/rpm-git-tag-sort

 - Please provide a changelog entry

 - The version is unsortable: 0.0.git.2.498f832d.dirty.0nub0m and the git hash info should be included in Release not Version. I would use the syntax for a prerelease and GIT snapshot:

Version:  0
Release:  0.1.20200717git498f832%{?dist}

Comment 2 clime7 2020-07-20 08:30:14 UTC
Robert, thank you very much. I will address the issues today. I would argue that 0.0.git.2.498f832d.dirty.0nub0m is sortable but I will replace it by 0.1 if you agree (I am actually upstream too for this package).

Comment 3 clime7 2020-07-20 21:32:50 UTC
I made most of changes according to the review.

spec file: https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/clime/rpm-git-tag-sort/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/01565909-rpm-git-tag-sort/rpm-git-tag-sort.spec
srpm: https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/clime/rpm-git-tag-sort/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/01565909-rpm-git-tag-sort/rpm-git-tag-sort-0.1-1.fc33.src.rpm
copr build: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/clime/rpm-git-tag-sort/build/1565909/

I am unsure about the usage of LDFLAGS. When used, I couldn't link the project successfully on my machine due to missing symbols from libgit.
I also did not provide %doc as I believe the project is quite minimal and rpm summary and command-line help is sufficient.

Please take a look if you can.

Comment 4 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2020-07-20 23:56:34 UTC
 - These should be autodetected:

rpm-git-tag-sort.x86_64: E: explicit-lib-dependency libgit2
rpm-git-tag-sort.x86_64: E: explicit-lib-dependency rpm-libs

Package is approved, please fix the aforementioned issue before import.

Comment 5 clime7 2020-07-21 01:04:11 UTC
 - These should be autodetected:

rpm-git-tag-sort.x86_64: E: explicit-lib-dependency libgit2
rpm-git-tag-sort.x86_64: E: explicit-lib-dependency rpm-libs

You mean I shouldn't put them into spec file as build requires? I think it is not bad to be a little bit more explicit than necessary though...

I don't think this is necessary, if correctly linked, the app will require the library with the correct soname it has been compiled with.

Comment 7 clime7 2020-07-21 13:59:29 UTC
So requires are unnecessary because they will dynamically added by rpm. I still don't think this should be an error. There is rarely anything wrong with being explicit instead of implicit (in programming circles).

Comment 8 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2020-07-21 14:44:33 UTC
It's a rpmlint warning: explicit-lib-dependency, not mandatory, just a recommendation. See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_explicit_requires

Comment 9 clime7 2020-07-22 15:41:29 UTC
Ok, great. I think it should be rather marked as 'W'.

Anyway, do you have some package you would like me to review?

Not at the moment, thank you.
