Description: KEALib is a project to provide an implementation of the GDAL specification within the the HDF5 file format. Specifically, the format will support raster attribute tables (commonly not included within other formats), image pyramids, GDAL meta-data, in-built statistics while also providing large file handling with compression used throughout the file. Being based on the HDF5 standard, it will also provide a base from which other formats could be derived and will be a good choice for long term data archiving. An independent software library (KEALib) has been provided through which complete access to the KEA image format is provided alongside a GDAL driver allowing KEA images to be used through any GDAL supported software.

Whoa. The description should be wrapped so that all lines are 80 characters max.

Not needed. CMake out-of-source builds are now the default.

Fedora still builds packages for some 32-bit architectures (i686 and armv7hl, to be precise) - use "%{_libdir}" here.

>make %{?_smp_mflags} -C %{_target_platform}
Use "%cmake_build" instead.
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/CMake/

>make DESTDIR=%{buildroot} install
Try "%cmake_install" instead.

>mv %{buildroot}%{_prefix}/lib/libkea* %{buildroot}%{_libdir}/
>mv %{buildroot}%{_prefix}/lib/gdalplugins/* %{buildroot}%{_libdir}/gdalplugins/
Add some check whether "%{_prefix}/lib" is different than "%{_libdir}" so that this doesn't fail on 32-bit architectures. Alternatively, try patching the CMakeLists.

>%files

>%{_includedir}/libkea
Un-versioned .so files and C/C++ headers should go in a -devel package.

shunk and line wrapping fixed.
 
> >mkdir -p %{_target_platform}

> Not needed. CMake out-of-source builds are now the default.

removed.

removed as being ignored anyway by KEA.

updated.

updated.

I tried both to no avail. I must admit that I am not really familiar with cmake.

This trick is also ignored by KEA:

# fix wrong lib entry
sed -i 's+set (PROJECT_LIBRARY_DIR lib)+set (PROJECT_LIBRARY_DIR %{_lib})+g' %{_builddir}/%{name}-%{version}/CMakeLists.txt

> Un-versioned .so files and C/C++ headers should go in a -devel package.

fixed.

Now it also builds on F33 and rawhide:

https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/neteler/kealib/build/1653821/

Updated SPEC file: https://data.neteler.org/tmp/kealib.spec

Comment 3 Artur Frenszek-Iwicki 2020-09-15 19:19:21 UTC
>%package devel
>Requires:    %{name}-libs%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release}
This cannot be satisfied, since there's no kealib-libs subpackage.
Did you mean "%{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release}"?
Or perhaps "kea-libs%{?_isa}"?

>%cmake \
>    -DHDF5_LIB_PATH:PATH=/usr/lib \
/usr/lib -> %{_libdir}
>%cmake \
    -DGDAL_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=/usr/include/gdal \
    -DHDF5_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=/usr/include \
/usr/include -> %{_includedir}

>%cmake_build
> 
>%cmake_install
Both of these happen during %build. Split into %build and %install sections.

Also, you need to provide both the spec and an SRPM for the review.

Comment 4 markusN 2020-09-16 11:38:50 UTC
Updated SPEC file, following your suggestions (thanks!):
 
- https://data.neteler.org/tmp/kealib.spec
- https://data.neteler.org/tmp/kealib-1.4.13-2.fc32.src.rpm
- build test on COPR: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/neteler/kealib/build/1663359/

Comment 5 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2020-10-05 21:21:53 UTC
Finishing this review or do you need help?

 - Use libdir here too:


    -DHDF5_LIB_PATH:PATH=/usr/lib \

    -DHDF5_LIB_PATH:PATH=%{_libdir} \

 - %{_builddir}/%{name}-%{version} is not needed here, at each stage, prep build and install, you are cd to this directory, so you can use CMakeLists.txt and . directly:

%{_builddir}/%{name}-%{version}/CMakeLists.txt


%cmake
[…]
    %{_builddir}/%{name}-%{version}

 - In order to avoid untintentional SONAME bump, we recommend not globbing the major soname version in library. Be more specific instead:

%{_libdir}/libkea.so.1*

 - You must install the LICENSE.txt with %license in %files

 - You should provide README.md with %doc in %files

Comment 6 markusN 2020-10-06 12:36:37 UTC
Thanks for your review, here the updated SPEC/SRPM files, following your suggestions:

Thanks for approving the package.

What is the next step here?

Comment 9 Artur Frenszek-Iwicki 2021-04-25 10:21:46 UTC
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/New_package_process_for_existing_contributors
Start from step 7.

tl;dr:
$ fedpkg request-repo kealib 1876864
# Requests are processed manually - wait for confirmation e-mail
$ fedpkg clone kealib
$ cd kealib/
$ fedpkg import PATH_TO_SRPM

Comment 10 markusN 2021-04-25 14:21:24 UTC
Thanks for your pointer.
Unfortunately I seem to have missed the train:

fedpkg request-repo kealib 1876864
Could not execute request_repo: The Bugzilla bug's review was approved over 60 days ago

Could you please re-approve it? Sorry about this...

Comment 11 markusN 2021-05-04 08:15:57 UTC
Gentle ping to Robert-André Mauchin.

Comment 12 Artur Frenszek-Iwicki 2022-05-20 15:10:38 UTC
So, it's been a year since the last comment. Are you still interested in packaging this?

Comment 13 markusN 2022-05-20 15:33:33 UTC
I'd continue but

fedpkg request-repo kealib 1876864
Could not execute request_repo: The Bugzilla bug's review was approved over 60 days ago

Comment 14 Artur Frenszek-Iwicki 2022-05-20 15:35:54 UTC
Marking Robert for NEEDINFO.

Reapproved

Comment 16 Gwyn Ciesla 2022-11-04 14:49:16 UTC
(fedscm-admin):  The Pagure repository was created at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/kealib

Comment 17 Artur Frenszek-Iwicki 2023-11-06 15:56:41 UTC
The package has been built and is available in the repositories for Fedora 40, 39 and 38.
I'll take the liberty of closing this ticket.
