Comment 1 Hans de Goede 2021-02-03 13:32:58 UTC
I'm doing a full review of this now, taking this and moving it to assigned.

Also fixing up the Component and Summary to match the template, to make sure non of the automated tooling trips over this.

Comment 2 Hans de Goede 2021-02-03 15:14:22 UTC
Full review done, with the help of fedora-review; and with the parts which fedora-review does not do automatically filled in manually.

I have found 2 small issues:

1. The F34 rebuild has build a libusb-0.1.7-3.fc34, so you need to bump the release field for the Obsoletes to work.

2. When expecting the Requires of the new package (which the fedora-review tool lists, see below) I noticed that it no longer has a (generated) Requires on: 'libusb-1.0.so.0()(64bit)' . Digging a bit deeper this is related to libusb-compat supporting ldopen-ing libusb1 so that it does not polute the ld namespace with libusb1 symbols. This is not something new, but until now this was not being used on Fedora:

The build log for the F33 build in koji has this:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/libusb/0.1.7/1.fc33/data/logs/x86_64/build.log
"checking for SONAME of libusb-1.0... sed: -e expression #1, char 40: Invalid back reference unknown"
which is causing the configure script / code to fallback to direct linking.

Where as the build log for the F34 build in koji has this:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/libusb/0.1.7/3.fc34/data/logs/x86_64/build.log
"checking for SONAME of libusb-1.0... libusb-1.0.so.0"

And ldopen is used (I assume) and the (generated) Requires on: 'libusb-1.0.so.0()(64bit)' is gone. This means that an explicit:

Requires: libusb1

Needs to be added to the spec-file for the main package.


I trust that you will fix these before importing this, so this packages is Approved.

See below for all the review-checks done:

Comment 3 Hans de Goede 2021-02-03 15:19:11 UTC
I just realized that the:

Requires: libusb1

Should be:

Requires: libusb1%{?_isa}

Comment 4 Mohan Boddu 2021-02-10 15:49:06 UTC
(fedscm-admin):  The Pagure repository was created at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libusb-compat-0.1

Comment 5 Mattia Verga 2022-02-21 09:52:05 UTC
This package was never imported, Benjamin are you still on it?

Comment 6 Benjamin Berg 2022-02-21 10:54:21 UTC
Huh, I completely forgot about this. AFAIK, the package has been ready for a long time. It just needs pushing out and then killing off the libusb package.

But, a bit late for the F36 cycle (in particular because I really need to do more stuff around libusb1 ATM). In particular as pushing it will trigger FTBFS situations where packagers need to decide whether to depend on libusb1 or libusb-compat-0.1.

So, I would say, the best thing is to import this into rawhide after F36 beta has frozen.

I agree this is probably rawhide only material, but once you've fixed the libusb1-1.0.25-4 breakage, then you can start working on this right away, since F36 has already branched of from rawhide.

Comment 8 Benjamin Berg 2022-03-07 14:23:36 UTC
Pushed to rawhide. Also, libusb is now retired in rawhide.
