Automated Review:


This is a review *template*. Besides handling the [ ]-marked tests you are
also supposed to fix the template before pasting into bugzilla:
- Add issues you find to the list of issues on top. If there isn't such
  a list, create one.
- Add your own remarks to the template checks.
- Add new lines marked [!] or [?] when you discover new things not
  listed by fedora-review.
- Change or remove any text in the template which is plain wrong. In this
  case you could also file a bug against fedora-review
- Remove the "[ ] Manual check required", you will not have any such lines
  in what you paste.
- Remove attachments which you deem not really useful (the rpmlint
  ones are mandatory, though)
- Remove this text

Comment 2 Matthew Miller 2021-12-10 21:14:47 UTC
Wow, modern spec files are getting closer and closer to the ideal. :)


1. Shouldn't it use `%{_datadir}/cockpit` in %files? (The main cockpit spec file does.)

2. Should this `Recommends: samba` and `nfs-utils` instead of Requires? I can see not wanting both.

3. This includes bundled fontawesome. I tested, and I don't think it needs to.

   * `rm -rf fontawesome`
   * sed -i '/fontawesome/d' file-sharing.html

   Having done this, the fontawesome glyphs (a plus sign and downward triangle) still work.

   This is what the warning about an unmarked `LICENSE.txt` file is all about. If we de-bundle, though... not needed.

4. Also includes a `file-sharing-patternfly.css.gz` — I hoped this would be the same and can also just be dropped, but removing it causes the utility to get boxed in a little viewport at the top of the its cockpit panel rather than using the whole thing. Not sure what is causing this -- mismatch in patternfly versions, maybe? I think this is probably the right thing to do, just not sure how to do it. Need web developer help I guess. Not sure if this is a blocker.

5. License of the files in "branding" file is unclear. There's nothing explicit excluding them from the GPLv3 license, so it's probably okay, but since we're not including this as part of one of their offerings, it seems respectful to debrand so they don't get misdirected support requests. Plus we don't have that kind of branding anywhere else in Cockpit in Fedora that I can see.

   It's easy to remove `branding.svg` — deleting that file and removing the line referencing it from file-sharing.html (sed -i '/branding\.svg/d' file-sharing.html) is sufficient.

  The other file, `spinner.svg`, also appears to be their logo, but without the name. Changing `class="spinner-45d"` to `class="spinner spinner-lg"` in `samba-manager/samba-manager.html` and `nfs-manager/nfs-manager.html` replaces this with a generic spinner — it doesn't quite match the styling of other Cockpit panels, but that could be a future improvement.

  Removing the entire spinner-45d from the css files would be the cleanest, but isn't necessary if nothing references that, and we can just rm -rf the branding subdir.

6. Automatic checklist complaint about no package owning `/usr/share/cockpit` is odd, as that belongs to `cockpit-bridge`.

7. Summary currently is "A cockpit module to make file sharing with Samba and NFS easier." and Description is:

      Cockpit File Sharing
      A cockpit module to make file sharing with Samba and NFS easier.

  I wouldn't nitpick this, except we should capitalize Cockpit, and while we're at it might as well match the descriptions of other Cockpit modules (and take the description directly from the readme.)
  AND, I think it's important to get "SMB" in here. So

     Summary: Cockpit user interface for managing SMB and NFS file sharing.

     A Cockpit component for managing SMB exports and NFS shares.  This package uses Samba and nfs-utils.

8. There is a 2.4.2 version out already. :)

Comment 3 Matthew Miller 2021-12-15 16:29:50 UTC
I've made


https://fedorapeople.org/~mattdm/packagereview/cockpit-file-sharing.spec
https://fedorapeople.org/~mattdm/packagereview/cockpit-file-sharing-2.4.1-1.fc35.mattdm.src.rpm

... which addresses most of the above. I don't know what to do about patternfly -- help wanted! And I was wrong about 2.4.3 being out yet; it's just mentioned in commits but isn't released.

Comment 4 Matthew Miller 2022-01-06 17:36:17 UTC
So, from upstream: https://github.com/45Drives/cockpit-file-sharing/issues/26#issuecomment-1006737817


> The decision was made with Cockpit 221 to remove patternfly.css from it's core utilities which was PatternFly 3 and a few other sources. file-sharing-patternfly.css.gz is a clone of what that file was in previous versions of cockpit. This was also done in the cockpit-zfs-manager module that we currently maintain.

I think it's probably okay to note that and leave the file as it is in the package.


Stephen, when you get a chance, can you update with my changes from comment #3, and then we can find an actual proper reviewer (I think I've ruined my neutrality on that front).

Comment 5 Stephen Gallagher 2022-01-06 19:59:33 UTC
Spec URL: https://sgallagh.fedorapeople.org/packagereview/cockpit-file-sharing/cockpit-file-sharing-2.4.1-3.spec
SRPM URL: https://sgallagh.fedorapeople.org/packagereview/cockpit-file-sharing/cockpit-file-sharing-2.4.1-3.fc35.src.rpm

I made a minor modification. The debundling now happens in the %prep step rather than %build (in keeping with other packages' approaches).

COPR: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/sgallagh/cockpit-45drives/build/3131215/

(Ignore the ELN build failures there, that's an unrelated issue)

Comment 6 Stephen Gallagher 2022-01-07 21:13:38 UTC
Spec URL: https://sgallagh.fedorapeople.org/packagereview/cockpit-file-sharing/cockpit-file-sharing-2.4.1-4.spec
SRPM URL: https://sgallagh.fedorapeople.org/packagereview/cockpit-file-sharing/cockpit-file-sharing-2.4.1-4.fc35.src.rpm

COPR: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/sgallagh/cockpit-45drives/build/3133235/

I switched from using a spec-based approach to debranding and debundling to a patch-based approach, which I think will be more maintainable.

Comment 7 Neal Gompa 2022-01-11 17:36:46 UTC
Review notes:

* Package is named properly
* Package builds and installs
* Package has no serious rpmlint issues
* Package is licensed correctly and license file is included

PACKAGE APPROVED.
