I'm blocking FE-NEEDSPONSOR because I don't see Mola's name in the cvsextras group. Please remove it if this is incorrect. Mola, please see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/HowToGetSponsored
It looks to me like you went to the account system to apply for sponsorship, but you seem to have skipped a few steps. Or do you actually have a sponsor lined up already? If not, I will deny your request in the account system and you can re-apply when you are actually ready to do so.
hmm what step i forgot ? fedora account , add cvsextras group add package ?
like this page http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/Contributors
You seem to have skipped over the "Watch for Feedback" and "Get Sponsored" steps from the document you cite. Your package needs to be reviewed by a sponsor first, and then, if acceptable it will be approved and then you can apply for cvsextras access. But please note the following, quoted from the Contributors document you mention above: However, please note that sponsorship is not automatic and may require that you participate in the process of reviewing other packages in order to demonstrate your understanding of the packaging guidelines. See Extras/HowToGetSponsored for more information on the process of finding a sponsor. The HowToGetSponsored page is the one I directed you to in comment #1.
update rpmlint warning Specfile : http://www.c100c.com/fedora/aspell6-fa.spec SRPM : http://www.c100c.com/fedora/aspell6-fa-0.10-0.src.rpm
Just some comments and hints: * Also run rpmlint on the built rpms: $ rpmlint ~/tmp/rpm/RPMS/aspell6-fa-0.10-0.i386.rpm W: aspell6-fa incoherent-version-in-changelog 0.10 0.10-0 E: aspell6-fa no-binary E: aspell6-fa only-non-binary-in-usr-lib W: aspell6-fa no-documentation At least the two "W"arnings are helpful. The "E"errors can be ignored with this package. * Why is the package called "aspell6-fa" when all other aspell language packages are called "aspell-*"? * The defined %lang macro is not used in "Source0" everywhere. * Creating a macro for the Aspell "0.60" version is highly recommended. * Summary says "Farsi" only, description says "Persian" only. For consistency and better results when searching package summaries, I would use the name "Farsi" also in the description. * Licence file COPYING is not included as %doc. * Don't include the aspell home directory, because it belongs into the aspell mother package already, and you require that package. $ rpmls -p aspell6-fa-0.10-0.i386.rpm |grep ^d drwxr-xr-x /usr/lib/aspell-0.60 Only include the files below that directory with this entry in the %files section: %{_libdir}/aspell-0.60/* * In your spec %changelog, specify the package version as full version-release, not just its version. Packages usually start with release 1, not 0.
It's been five months since the last comment; is there still interest in getting this package into the distribution?
i want to add this package Spec URL: http://mola.c100c.com/data/files/Spec%20file/aspell6-fa.spec SRPM URL: http://mola.c100c.com/data/files/Srpm/aspell6-fa-0.11-0.src.rpm
Package no longer on the server (why was the name aspell6-fa, anyway?). Should this be closed?
This has been in NEEDINFO state for over a month now; I will close this ticket soon if there is no response.
Another two weeks have passed; closing.
