Description Tobias Florek 2020-11-24 11:24:59 UTC
Spec URL: https://gitlab.com/ibotty/j4-dmenu-desktop-rpm-spec/-/blob/main/j4-dmenu-desktop.spec
SRPM URL: https://gitlab.com/ibotty/j4-dmenu-desktop-rpm-spec/-/raw/spec-file/j4-dmenu-desktop-2.18-1.fc33.src.rpm?inline=false

Description: j4-dmenu-desktop is a replacement for i3-dmenu-desktop. It's purpose is to find .desktop files and offer you a menu to start an application using dmenu. Since r2.7 j4-dmenu-desktop doesn't require i3wm anymore and should work just fine on about any desktop environment.
You can also execute shell commands using it.

Comment 2 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2021-01-20 19:00:11 UTC
 - Please give your archive a better name:

Source0:        https://github.com/enkore/%{name}/archive/r%{version}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz


 - Don't gzip the man page yourself, it is handled by rpm:

gzip < %{name}.1 > %{buildroot}%{_mandir}/man1/%{name}.1.gz

 - The license file must be installed with %license not %doc:

%files
%license LICENSE

Comment 3 Tobias Florek 2021-01-20 20:28:19 UTC
Thank you for the review!

I fixed all things I could fix.

Unfortunately, I don't control upstream, so I cannot fix the source tarball name.  I agree that this name is pretty bad.

Github support passing the filename you want after the last / in the url

Source0:        https://github.com/enkore/%{name}/archive/r%{version}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz


 - why cat and not just cp or install -pm 0644 here:

cat %{name}.1 > %{buildroot}%{_mandir}/man1/%{name}.1

Comment 6 Tobias Florek 2021-01-21 18:59:34 UTC
Oh, I did not know that you could get it by a different filename.  That's neat.  I fixed it as well as the (slight not as) useless use of cat.

Thanks you!

> [?]: Package functions as described.

I will note, that I have been using that package daily since November, so it works for me.
