Comment 1 Ben Beasley 2021-03-01 15:32:33 UTC
Not a full review, but some comments at first glance:

-----

You should attempt to unbundle afdko, which is already in Fedora as adobe-afdko. Otherwise, you must handle it as specified in https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#bundling.

I think you can do this by patching out the “tx = Executable(…)” section in setup.py, and just symlinking /usr/bin/tx in the right place. At this point the package could even become noarch, as the bundled executable is the only compiled code.

-----

You should not be adding %global debug_package %{nil} without a good reason. It should be possible to build this with proper debuginfo.

-----

The package fails to build in mock because it is looking for setuptools-git-ls-files. I have submitted this for review, and you could review it to get it quickly added to Fedora (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1909400), but there may be further patching and workarounds required. After all, the purpose is to use git metadata, which is not in the release tarball, so having the dependency packaged might not help at all.

-----

The %python_provide macro is obsolete and should not be used in Fedora. If you are targeting Fedora 32, you can use %py_provides, otherwise nothing is needed. (I like to wrap %py_provides in %if 0%{?fedora} == 32 / %endif as a reminder it should be removed after Fedora 32 EOL.) See https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Python/#_the_py_provides_macro.

-----

  %{python3_sitearch}/%{srcname}-*.egg-info
  %{python3_sitearch}/%{srcname}/*.py
  %{python3_sitearch}/%{srcname}/__pycache__
  %{python3_sitearch}/%{srcname}/tx

would be more conventionally and, I think, better written as

  %{python3_sitearch}/%{srcname}
  %{python3_sitearch}/%{srcname}-%{version}-py%{python3_version}.egg-info

-----

It is helpful to run the fedora-review tool on your own RPM to flush out any problems.

-----

I have my own reasons for wanting this in Fedora, so I’m willing to help out quite a bit getting the spec file improved.

Sample spec file implementing early feedback

Please see the attached sample spec file. It should cover my feedback, including unbundling adobe-afdko. If you like it, please feel free to modify it to your liking and use it in an updated submission.

Note that Fedora 32 cannot be supported because its python3-fonttools is too old.

Comment 3 Rajeesh 2021-03-02 05:30:49 UTC
Many thanks for your review and for providing updated spec. I shall help with reviewing setuptools-git-ls-files. Unfortunately, my main laptop is under repair; it would be another week or so before I could get back to these.

Comment 4 Ben Beasley 2021-03-02 14:23:38 UTC
Given I was able to patch the setuptools-git-ls-files BR out of this package, I may drop the review request for it. I don’t think it’s used for anything other than cffsubr, and I originally submitted it intending to package cffusbr in the future.

I’m going ahead and claiming this review; I’ll await your updated submission. Thanks!

Comment 5 Rajeesh 2021-03-10 23:40:48 UTC

Thanks for packaging this! Approved, but please note the comment in Issues, below.


Package Review
==============

Legend:
[x] = Pass, [!] = Fail, [-] = Not applicable, [?] = Not evaluated


===== Issues =====

- In the source RPM, the spec file has permissions 0400 (read-only, and only by
  the owner). This may, or may not, cause problems when trying to import into
  dist-git or build the package, but it is odd and surprising.  I am not
  blocking the package review on this, but please do change it (chmod 0644
  python-cffsubr.spec).

===== MUST items =====

Generic:
[x]: Package is licensed with an open-source compatible license and meets
     other legal requirements as defined in the legal section of Packaging
     Guidelines.
[x]: License field in the package spec file matches the actual license.
     Note: Checking patched sources after %prep for licenses. Licenses
     found: "Unknown or generated", "*No copyright* Apache License 2.0",
     "SIL Open Font License 1.1". 22 files have unknown license. Detailed
     output of licensecheck in /home/reviewer/1928694-python-
     cffsubr/20210314/1928694-python-cffsubr/licensecheck.txt

     they are correctly not in the License field.

[x]: Package successfully compiles and builds into binary rpms on at least
     one supported primary architecture.

     license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the
     license(s) for the package is included in %license.

[x]: Package must own all directories that it creates.
[x]: Package does not own files or directories owned by other packages.

     beginning of %install.
[x]: Macros in Summary, %description expandable at SRPM build time.
[x]: Dist tag is present.
[x]: Package does not contain duplicates in %files.
[x]: Permissions on files are set properly.

FEDORA-2021-f70c6130ec has been submitted as an update to Fedora 33. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-f70c6130ec

Comment 9 Rajeesh 2021-03-17 11:34:39 UTC
spec file permission fixed in SRPM import and built for Rawhide, F34 & F33. F32 build failed, shall investigate.

Comment 10 Ben Beasley 2021-03-17 12:36:26 UTC
From a mock-build on F32:

> No matching package to install: 'python3dist(fonttools) >= 4.10.2'

Given that, I would just skip F32.
