Comment 4 Davide Cavalca 2022-07-06 03:34:29 UTC
Not sure why fedora-review didn't pick them up, but there's a few rpmlint errors:

isomer.noarch: W: no-manual-page-for-binary isomer
isomer.noarch: E: description-line-too-long ISOmer is a utility for creating ISO images based on an existing image or template.
isomer.noarch: E: description-line-too-long It allows you to "flavor" a source directory to create a custom ISO in a repeatable, efficient way.

The manpage isn't a blocker, but you should fix the description. Also consider using tox to run the tests (via %pyproject_buildrequires -t and %tox in %check).

Comment 5 Davide Cavalca 2022-07-06 03:40:53 UTC
There is also an issue with https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Python/#_pypi_parity -- https://pypi.org/project/isomer/ is taken up by another project, and according to the policy the project either needs to be renamed, or you'd need to request a Packaging Committee exception for it to be included as-is.

Comment 6 Avram Lubkin 2022-07-06 12:22:09 UTC
Thanks for the review! I've updated the spec for the summary and description. I didn't get an error when I ran rpmlint locally. Curious what version of rpmlint you're running and if you have any options set. I have version 2.2.0.

I don't think using tox is a good practice. It essentially adds an unnecessary dependency and abstraction and runs the same command. I can see an advantage where the test procedure is more complicated or prone to change, but, in this case, it's about as basic as it gets using unittest from the stdlib.

I'll look into the pypi naming issue.
