SRPM URL: http://home.comcast.net/~ckweyl/perl-Gnome2-Print-1.000-1.fc6.src.rpm SPEC URL: http://home.comcast.net/~ckweyl/perl-Gnome2-Print.spec Description: This module allows you to use the GNOME Print libraries within your applications written using the gtk2-perl wrapper. The GNOME Print libraries (also known as libgnomeprint and libgnomeprintui) allow you to create printable documents (using various frontends) and offer standard widgets in order to mainatin a UI consistent for all GNOME applications.
Tell me how can i use this package or test its working in FC6 core?
There are a number of sample scripts that come in the examples directory (or, when the rpm is installed, under %doc). Running one or more of those should enable you to examine the functionailty of the module proper.
Did mock build and found under build.log Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '-pthread' Got some rpmlint Warnings W: perl-Gnome2-Print devel-file-in-non-devel-package /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/Gnome2/Print/Install/gnomeprintperl-autogen.h A development file (usually source code) is located in a non-devel package.

Those warnings can be safely ignored for perl packages.
Not able to find license file(Is am i missing something)? Still Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '-pthread' message coming not understanding which causes this message to appear?
(In reply to comment #5) > Not able to find license file(Is am i missing something)? Yes, you are missing something: Nobody is obliged to ship one. Perl module files typically contain licenses embedded into their source files. > Still Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: '-pthread' message coming > not understanding which causes this message to appear? IIRC, this is a bug/crappy code somewhere in some of the perl-Gtk/Gnome infrastructure. I recall this had appeared several times before, but I don't recall all details on how this had been resolved. Googling/searching bugzilla might provide further insights.
Does that be a blocker?
(In reply to comment #7) > Does that be a blocker? I just found a reference: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=166252 ... so people seem to preferr to ignore this bug :(
Review: + package builds in mock (development i386). + rpmlint is silent for SRPM and but NOT for RPMS. But those warnings are ignored. + source files match upstream. 66578c2ffaebbe035a0735e65ad71c3f Gnome2-Print-1.000.tar.gz + package meets naming and packaging guidelines. + specfile is properly named, is cleanly written + Spec file is written in American English. + Spec file is legible. + dist tag is present. + build root is correct. + license is open source-compatible. License text included in package. + %doc is small; no -doc subpackage required. + %doc does not affect runtime. + BuildRequires are proper. + %clean is present. + package installed properly. + Macro use appears rather consistent. + Package contains code, not content. + no headers or static libraries. + .pc file present. + no -devel subpackage exists + no .la files. + no translations are available + Dose owns the directories it creates. + no duplicates in %files. + file permissions are appropriate. + Followed perl packaging guidelines. APPROVED.
Don't Forget to CLOSE this with NEXTRELEASE
Imported and building for devel; branches requested for FC5,6. Thanks for the review! :)
