Indeed the srpm is just built from the git repo i linked. Here's my copr build https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/aleasto/waydroid/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/04600450-libglibutil/libglibutil-1.0.65-1.fc37.src.rpm

Comment 4 Jakub Kadlčík 2022-10-31 12:28:48 UTC
Hello Alessandro,
thank you for the package.

Overall it looks good to me.


> Source: %{url}/archive/refs/tags/%{version}.tar.gz

Sources should be indexed, starting from zero. Can you please change
it to Source0?


> %description
> Provides glib utility functions and macros

Can you please write 2-3 full sentences about the package? 


> rm -rf %{buildroot}

This can IMHO be removed


> %defattr(-,root,root,-)

I believe this isn't needed as well. Did you have to add it to address
some issue?


> %post -p /sbin/ldconfig
> %postun -p /sbin/ldconfig

Note to myself to look at these again, running out of time now :-)

Comment 5 Alessandro Astone 2022-10-31 13:19:05 UTC
This was originally inherited from the project maintainer themselves:
https://github.com/sailfishos/libglibutil/blob/master/rpm/libglibutil.spec

I can clean up the odd rm -rf and %defattr if you prefer.

I'm not sure what to write honestly, i just know this package is a dependency of libgbinder which is more interesting.

Comment 6 Alessandro Astone 2022-11-01 22:00:16 UTC
I've included your suggestions as well as some other I received on my other review requests

Spec URL: https://pagure.io/waydroid/libglibutil/raw/main/f/libglibutil.spec
SRPM URL: https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/aleasto/waydroid/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/05002418-libglibutil/libglibutil-1.0.67-1.fc38.src.rpm

Thank you for the changes.

I understand, I was looking at the repo and I have no idea as well. I
just hoped you gathered some information from using it :-)

Looking at the debian package within the repo, they don't provide any
more information either. Okay, let's not block the review by this.

What do you think about creating an upstream issue and asking them to
provide a little bit more information about the project in the
README? You can link them this ticket and say that we both had no idea
how to describe the project :D

It's just a suggestion, if you decide not to do it, it's fine. If yes,
please add the link to the upstream issue like this

    # https://github.com/sailfishos/libglibutil/issues/XX

>   Note: /sbin/ldconfig called in libglibutil
>   See: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Removing_ldconfig_scriptlets

So it seems the

    %post -p /sbin/ldconfig
    %postun -p /sbin/ldconfig

lines should be removed, and I would guess these as well

    Requires(post): /sbin/ldconfig
    Requires(postun): /sbin/ldconfig

Comment 11 Jakub Kadlčík 2022-11-03 00:33:23 UTC
Since this would be your first Fedora package, you will need to get
sponsored into the `packager' group before this package can be
accepted.

I would like to sponsor you.

That would make it my responsibility to guide you through the processes that
you will do, and the tools that you will need as a package maintainer. I
would also be there to answer your packaging-related questions, or to
help you find somebody who knows the answers.

Your responsibilities as a future package maintainer are explained here
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Package_maintainer_responsibilities/

To make sure a person is able to fulfill the package maintainer
responsibilities, we usually stick to this process
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Packager_sponsor_policy/#requirements


I am sending you an email with some follow-up information and my
contact information. But for the sake of full transparency, there are
also other packager sponsors, so you can reach out to them if you
prefer to do so. They might be busy though.

(fedscm-admin):  The Pagure repository was created at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libglibutil
