Spec URL: http://www-sop.inria.fr/geometrica/team/Laurent.Rineau/Fedora/wbxml2.spec SRPM URL: http://www-sop.inria.fr/geometrica/team/Laurent.Rineau/Fedora/wbxml2-0.9.2-3.src.rpm Description: The WBXML Library (libwbxml) contains a library and its associated tools to parse, encode and handle WBXML documents. The WBXML format is a binary representation of XML, defined by the Wap Forum, and used to reduce bandwidth in mobile communications. This library is a required by libsyncml (to be submitted latter).
wbxml2 is an orphaned and meanwhile dead.package: http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/rpms/wbxml2/FC-5/?root=extras
Review: + package builds in mock (development i386) for FC6. + rpmlint is silent for RPM and SRPM. + source files match upstream. 67a48fd9b69db8818a4dca5375c7993a wbxml2-0.9.2.tar.gz + package meets naming and packaging guidelines. + specfile is properly named and 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. + COPYING included in %doc. + BuildRequires are proper. + %clean is present. + package installed properly. + Macro use appears rather consistent. + Package contains code, not content. + no headers or static libraries. + libwbxml2.pc file present. + -devel subpackage exists + no .la files. + no translations are available. + owns the directories it creates. + doesn't own any directories it shouldn't. + no duplicates in %files. + file permissions are appropriate. APPROVED.
Don't forget to CLOSE this bug with resolution NEXTRELEASE
Thank you paragn (I cannot know if Parag is a first name or a family name, sorry). As wbxml2 was orphaned. I have to follow the rules of: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/OrphanedPackages#head-a85a2020dd49e5049bdf20e9bddfede8502e0e32 Well, as far as I can see, I only have to tell fedora-extras-list that I want to take over wbxml2. I have contacted Michael Schwendt (that appears in the former wbxml2 changelog) by e-mail to know if there was issues that lead to orphaning wbxml2. Perhaps I should also include the former changelog in my new spec file.
Build for rawhide. Build job 22503. I have just submitted a new request, for libsyncml this time. See bug #217524.
