Description:
Coxpcall encapsulates the protected calls with a coroutine based loop,
so errors can be handled without the usual pcall/xpcall issues with 
coroutines for Lua 5.1.

Will need to unretire https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/lua-coxpcall

Comment 2 Jonny Heggheim 2022-11-17 10:49:49 UTC
I did not notice this review request before now. Adding email I just sent:

You can use the following expression to convert from standard version numbers to
the gittag by the following:

%global gittag %(v=%{version}; echo v${v//./_})

Version:        1.17.0
Source0:        %{url}/archive/%{gittag}/coxpcall-%{gittag}.tar.gz


$ spectool -l lua-coxpcall.spec

Comment 3 Jonny Heggheim 2022-11-17 10:57:10 UTC
I am doing a package review since this package was retired two years ago.

> Retired Fedora packages (rawhide branch retired) require a re-review if they are retired for more than eight weeks or if there is no previous review of the package.

Issues:
=======
- Package does not use a name that already exists.

  Following these steps after review have been approved
  https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Package_Retirement_Process/#claiming

  Consider keeping the old %changelog?

- Follow the same version scheme as upstream and most other RPM packages with dot instead of underscore.
  Upstream also use dot for versions that are distributed to luarocks.


Personal preferences
====================
- Upstream uses http://keplerproject.github.io/coxpcall/ as URL/homepage both
  at luarocks and in their README.

- Could use the provided Makefile to install (but it lacks the preserve flag...)

  %install
  %make_install LUA_DIR=%{lua_pkgdir}

- Remove the recursive flag for
> cp -pr src/coxpcall.lua %{buildroot}%{lua_pkgdir}/

Comment 5 Benson Muite 2022-11-17 15:47:23 UTC
Thanks for your review.

Kept changelog
Used standard versioning scheme
Have used cp -p rather than the Makefile.

Hopefully most packages that rely on this can be upgraded to use what is in Lua, but this may take some time.

Comment 6 Jonny Heggheim 2022-11-17 19:22:56 UTC
Review approved!

You miss a "v" in the Source0 in front of the last %{gittag}, please fix before import.

Feel free to merge the %changelog as you feel is best or start fresh with your entry when you import the package.

Comment 7 Benson Muite 2022-11-19 06:18:50 UTC
It is helpful to have the old history.

Comment 8 Jonny Heggheim 2022-11-30 12:20:29 UTC
Could you run builds/updates?
