Fedora Merge Review: cpufreq-utils http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/cpufreq-utils/ Initial Owner: lizhang
Package Change Request ====================== Package Name: cpufreq-utils I want to rename the package to cpufrequtils, to match the upstream package name. http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/cpufreq/cpufrequtils.html
We dislike doing renames of packages with history... Would you be ok with adding the new package name and following the http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/PackageEndOfLife procedure on the old package? That way people can find the old package, and know what happened to it more clearly.
Per irc conversion, I have created the new cpufrequtils package, and you can end of life the old cpufreq-utils package. cvs done.
I'm pretty sure this still needs a merge review under the new name.
- The patches need comments wrt their upstream status: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#All_patches_should_have_an_upstream_bug_link_or_comment - You need to either use $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/$RPM_OPT_FLAGS or %{buildroot}/%{optflags}, but currently both styles are used: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Using_.25.7Bbuildroot.7D_and_.25.7Boptflags.7D_vs_.24RPM_BUILD_ROOT_and_.24RPM_OPT_FLAGS I'll try to perform a full review soon.
This package is dead as of F17; closing this ancient ticket.
