Spec URL: http://mymadcat.com/gliv.spec SRPM URL: http://mymadcat.com/gliv.src.rpm Description: GLiv is an OpenGL image viewer. GLiv is very fast and smooth at rotating, panning and zooming if you have an OpenGL accelerated graphics board. The spec file is took from dag, the package does not seem to be maintained anymore... I spoke to the author, who is ok for gliv to enter fedora extras. This is my first package for fedora extras, so I seek a sponsor.
(In reply to comment #0) > Spec URL: http://mymadcat.com/gliv.spec > SRPM URL: http://mymadcat.com/gliv.src.rpm All I get when accessing one of these URLs is 404
Sorry for the 404... The URL for the spec file is good, however the SRPM is http://mymadcat.com/gliv-1.9.5-1.src.rpm (SPEC file is still http://mymadcat.com/gliv.spec) Also, this package depends on gtkglext
NEED Some Work in SPEC file:- 1) Use the dist tag in release like: Release: 1%{?dist} 2) Remove Hard coded Packager tag and Vendor tag also. 3) Use %setup -q instead %setup
Hi, I updated the SPEC files and rebuilt the rpm (tested a binary build, works too) with the new spec file. On thing I don't understand is the desktop file get named gnome-gliv.desktop though the word "gnome" is not mentionned in the SPEC file...
wherw is your updated SPEC file and SRC RPM. Provide URL links each time you update SPEC as well as Tarball. Also update release number.
This package still suffers from several issues: * Non-utf8 man-pages # rpmlint /users/packman/src/rpms/RPMS/i386/gliv-1.9.5-1.i386.rpm W: gliv incoherent-version-in-changelog 1.9.5 1.9.5-1 W: gliv file-not-utf8 /usr/share/man/ru/man1/gliv.1.gz W: gliv file-not-utf8 /usr/share/man/de/man1/gliv.1.gz * Package doesn't acknowledge RPM_BUILD_OPTS. * When building as a normal user: ... /bin/sh: mkdirhier: command not found ... This is a bug inside of the toplevel Makefile.am * When building inside of mock: ... No desktop-file-install(1), skipping gliv.desktop ... * %configure --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib is wrong for FC >= 5 * Gettext support inside of the package's configuration seems to be broken. - "BR: bison" is a symptom of the broken configuration. This package does not "BR: bison"
Hi, I don't understand what you mean with "BR: bison" Anyway, I corrected the other bugs, and removed the man pages while I'm not able to convert them (iconv will fail on an escape sequence error). I re-enabled the desktop-file-install command, but I have to hardcode the %{vendor} value (I set it to fedora) rpmlint does not complain about anything now, but I'm sure there are things to improve. http://mymadcat.com/gliv-1.9.5-1.src.rpm http://mymadcat.com/gliv.spec
(In reply to comment #7) > I don't understand what you mean with "BR: bison" Your spec contains: "BuildRequires: bison" This not correct. Bison would only be required if using the included libintl, which you don't want to do on Fedora. => Remove "BuildRequires: bison" > Anyway, I corrected the other bugs, and removed the man pages while I'm not able > to convert them (iconv will fail on an escape sequence error). Hmm??? The German man page is iso8859-15 encoded, the Russian KOI8-R => Something using these commands below should do the job: iconv -f iso8859-15 -t utf8 iconf -f KOI8-R -t utf8 > http://mymadcat.com/gliv-1.9.5-1.src.rpm Please increment the Release-Tag each time you upload a new src.rpm.
OK, I converted the man pages to utf-8, and corrected the buildrequires statement. I also incremented the release tag. But since we're using gettext, should I add a BR: gettext-devel ? New URLS : http://mymadcat.com/gliv.spec http://mymadcat.com/gliv-1.9.5-2.src.rpm
Hey Madcat, sorry for the lack of recent activity here... Since you are seeking sponsorship, you might want to take a look at: http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/HowToGetSponsored If you have additional packages to submit or can add review comments to other pending packages that may help sponsors in determining that you understand the guidelines and are ready for sponsorship.
Ping?
Little note: Change BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root to BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n) Btw, are you still have interest to package this application? If not, I can take it.
Hi, thanks for the tip. Actually, I got a very intense scholar year, so I'd be glad if you could take this app. I'll let the spec and the srpm online. Regards Adrien BUSTANY
Is this review request stalled?
Not if Peter Lemenkov handle the packaging. If not, then yes :) I won't have the time to do it myself this year
I'll take it over.
