Some first thoughts while reading the spec file: > Requires: golly-data Is it really intended that this requirement is unversioned? If not, I would recommend "golly-data = %{version}-%{release}" instead. Why is the golly-devel subpackage not noarch, too? It seems to populate the same paths like golly-data does. If golly-devel contains versioned content, I recommend to switch from "%{name} = %{version}-%{release}" to "%{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release}". And if it's unversioned, I think "BuildArch: noarch" would make more sense. Is it intended that only golly-data can be installed (without having golly itself installed)? Depending on how strong the dependency is (just a wild guess), it also could be e.g. "Recommends: golly-data" in the main package and "Requires: golly" in the subpackage. > desktop-file-validate %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/applications/%{name}.desktop I would recommend to move this into %check, https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_desktop_file_install_usage (it seems to be more a check rather than an installation command). > URL: http://golly.sourceforge.net/ You could switch the URI scheme to HTTPS.

Thank you very much for the review.

And if it's unversioned, I think > "BuildArch: noarch" would make more sense. Yes, both subpackages can be noarch. Since their content is provided by the upstream tarball, I think it would be best to make the dependencies fully versioned. > Is it intended that only golly-data can be installed (without having golly > itself installed)? Depending on how strong the dependency is (just a wild > guess), it also could be e.g. "Recommends: golly-data" in the main package > and "Requires: golly" in the subpackage. Agreed. Installing just a subpackage like -devel or -data without the main package is no real use case. Although the main package would work without the -data package with less features and probably some broken menu entries, I don't think it is intended to run without it. The main reason for splitting off the -data was that larger data should go into a separate subpackage according to the packaging guidelines. In that case, would it be OK that -data would require the main package (fully versioned) and the other way around as well? Then they both would be always installed (and updated) at the same time. For now I used Recommends: (versioned) in the provided spec file. > > desktop-file-validate %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/applications/%{name}.desktop > > I would recommend to move this into %check, > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/ > #_desktop_file_install_usage (it seems to be more a check rather than an > installation command). Done. The guidelines seem to allow both, but I agree that semantically it would be rather a check task and not an install task. > > > URL: http://golly.sourceforge.net/ > > You could switch the URI scheme to HTTPS.

I am sorry, I overlooked one point before: [!]: Package must own all directories that it creates. Note: Directories without known owners: /usr/share/golly/Rules -devel fills /usr/share/golly/Rules, but depends on the main package, which only recommends the -data package, which could finally lead to a not owned directory. "%dir %{_datadir}/%{name}/Rules" in the -devel package could be a practical solution (or add a dependency in -devel to -data as an alternative).

Would the following alternative work as well? - let the main package own /usr/share/golly/Rules - since both subpackages require the main package, there would be no situation where that directory would be unowned - it avoids that a directory would be owned by two packages (I didn't find any statement in the guidelines which forbids it explicitly, but it is rarely used and I would like to avoid it) Next version of the package contains the following changes: - avoid unowned packages by letting the main package own /usr/share/golly/Rules - added missing comment about SPDX migration - remove trailing white-space Spec URL: https://fedorapeople.org/~chkr/review/golly.spec SRPM URL: https://fedorapeople.org/~chkr/review/golly-4.2-3.fc40.src.rpm
