Description Boian Bonev 2020-09-13 20:19:53 UTC
Spec URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bbonev/iotop/master/fedora/iotop-c.spec
SRPM URL: https://github.com/bbonev/iotop/raw/master/fedora/iotop-c-1.11-1.fc32.src.rpm
Description: iotop-c is re-implementation of Python iotop with lots of improvements and added functionality
Fedora Account System Username: bbonev1

Because of the improvements, iotop-c's command line options differ from the Python version. Because of that I have added conflicts and didn't implement alternatives. In my opinion alternatives are OK for this package, but I have followed Fedora policy here.

As an upstream maintainer of iotop C re-implementation, it is not a problem for me to maintain a Fedora package too (currently I do Debian and Arch Linux).

I have tried koji and mock builds, they go without warnings.

rpmlint RPMS/* SRPMS/*
iotop-c.src:5: W: hardcoded-packager-tag Boian Bonev <bbonev>
4 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 1 warnings.

As long as this is my first RPM package, I may have missed something, so I would appreciate advice.

Comment 1 Boian Bonev 2020-09-13 21:07:30 UTC
rpmlint warning is now fixed.

somehow I couldn't set that this blocks

Comment 2 Artur Frenszek-Iwicki 2020-09-15 18:40:42 UTC
>Source2:        https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Tomas-M/iotop/master/debian/upstream/signing-key.asc
Shouldn't this also come from the version-tag, instead of master branch? What if the key is changed in master?

>%install
>rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
Don't remove the buildroot at start of %install.
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_tags_and_sections

>%files
>/usr/sbin/iotop
>/usr/share/man/man8/iotop.8.gz
1. Don't use hard-coded paths here. Instead, use the appropriate RPM macros as described here:
   https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/RPMMacros/#_macros_for_paths_set_and_used_by_build_systems
2. Don't assume that man pages will be gzipped. Use a wildcard that can match
   any compression method (including no compression at all).
   https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_manpages

Comment 3 Boian Bonev 2020-09-15 19:53:22 UTC
Thanks for the suggestions!

Should I regenerate and replace the source rpm? Or provide another link?

Comment 4 Artur Frenszek-Iwicki 2020-09-15 21:09:35 UTC
Either solution is fine, though you must provide both the updated spec and the rebuilt SRPM.

Comment 6 Boian Bonev 2020-09-27 01:47:40 UTC
Update to version 1.14:

Spec URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bbonev/iotop/fedora/fedora/iotop-c.spec
SRPM URL: https://github.com/bbonev/iotop/raw/fedora/fedora/iotop-c-1.14-1.fc32.src.rpm

Obviously the spec links in previous messages point to the latest one and 1.11 SRPM is no longer valid...

Comment 7 Artur Frenszek-Iwicki 2020-10-25 12:24:44 UTC

Comment 8 Boian Bonev 2020-10-25 22:43:47 UTC
Update to version 1.15

Spec URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bbonev/iotop/master/fedora/iotop-c.spec
SRPM URL: https://github.com/bbonev/iotop/raw/fedora/fedora/iotop-c-1.15-1.fc32.src.rpm

Just in case, I did a koji build for rawhide:

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=54198875

Short list of changes:

- update to the latest released version 1.15
- removed conflict with iotop, renamed binary and man page to iotop-c (as per discussion on devel list)
- install the COPYING file

Comment 9 Boian Bonev 2020-10-25 22:55:24 UTC
Thanks for the review, in case I can do a review back, let me know (although I am not if I can do that)
