Preliminary Review:-

rpmlint on SRPM and RPM gave me
-------------------------------------
system-config-rootpassword.src:12: W: unversioned-explicit-obsoletes
redhat-config-rootpassword
==> The specfile contains an unversioned Obsoletes: token, which will match all
older, equal and newer versions of the obsoleted thing.  This may cause update
problems, restrict future package/provides naming, and may match something it
was originally not inteded to match -- make the Obsoletes versioned if
possible.

system-config-rootpassword.src:21: W: prereq-use gtk2 >= 2.6
==> The use of PreReq is deprecated. In the majority of cases, a plain Requires
is enough and the right thing to do. Sometimes Requires(pre), Requires(post),
Requires(preun) and/or Requires(postun) can also be used instead of PreReq.

system-config-rootpassword.src: E: no-cleaning-of-buildroot %install
==> You should clean $RPM_BUILD_ROOT in the %clean section and just after the
beginning of %install section. Use "rm -Rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT".

system-config-rootpassword.src: W: mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs (spaces: line
36, tab: line 39)
==> The specfile mixes use of spaces and tabs for indentation, which is a
cosmetic annoyance.  Use either spaces or tabs for indentation, not both.

system-config-rootpassword.noarch: W: no-documentation
system-config-rootpassword.noarch: E: script-without-shebang
/usr/share/system-config-rootpassword/rootpassword_tui.py
system-config-rootpassword.noarch: E: script-without-shebang
/usr/share/system-config-rootpassword/passwordDialog.py
==>This text file has executable bits set or is located in a path dedicated
for executables, but lacks a shebang and cannot thus be executed.  If the file
is meant to be an executable script, add the shebang, otherwise remove the
executable bits or move the file elsewhere.


system-config-rootpassword.noarch: W: symlink-should-be-relative
/usr/share/firstboot/modules/rootpassword.py
/usr/share/system-config-rootpassword/passwordDialog.py
==>Absolute symlinks are problematic eg. when working with chroot environments.

system-config-rootpassword.noarch: W: obsolete-not-provided
redhat-config-rootpassword
==> If a package is obsoleted by a compatible replacement, the obsoleted package
must also be provided in order to provide clean upgrade paths and not cause
unnecessary dependency breakage.  If the obsoleting package is not a compatible
replacement for the old one, leave out the provides.


system-config-rootpassword.noarch: W: conffile-without-noreplace-flag
/etc/pam.d/system-config-rootpassword
system-config-rootpassword.noarch: W: conffile-without-noreplace-flag
/etc/security/console.apps/system-config-rootpassword
==> A configuration file is stored in your package without the noreplace flag.
A way to resolve this is to put the following in your SPEC file:

%config(noreplace) /etc/your_config_file_here

----------------------------------------------------


also,
  1) update buildroot tag as given in
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-b4fdd45fa76cbf54c885ef0836361319ab962473
  2) packaging guidelines suggests use of make as 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-525c7d76890cb22df33b759c65c35c82bf434d2e
  3) missing buildroot cleanup in %install. check
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-6c809b2e945ca78ae25d040f250be60f73181ef0
  4) any reason for not using macros for following line om %files section
   /usr/bin/system-config-rootpassword
   %dir /usr/share/system-config-rootpassword
   %dir /usr/share/system-config-rootpassword/pixmaps
   /usr/share/system-config-rootpassword/*
   %dir /usr/share/firstboot/
   %dir /usr/share/firstboot/modules
   /usr/share/firstboot/modules/rootpassword.py*

  5) Any reason for commenting %doc COPYING?
  6) good to use %defattr(-,root,root,-)

Update package. Better to provide new SPEC and SRPM links for this package
before actually committing in CVS.

Ping? any updated ?

Orphaned Package.
Moving away from this review.
Open this review once someone wants to maintain this.

Can I have updates here now?

Parag: I'll incorporate your fixes shortly. I'll be adding a lot of other fixes
also (around 3 :), and I wait for a hosting space for a source code repository
now. Thanks for your patience!

Hey thanks. 
Also, thanks for keeping this package alive :)
take your time for those fixes.

Not a good idea -- I expressed that on fedora-devel once. Versioned obsoletes
can not really be done correctly -- they either obsolete possible future version
or disallow updates in old versions. No worries, redhat-config-rootpassword is
never coming back.

Just removed it -- it should be pulled in by pygtk2 anyways.

Should not be executable. Will be fixed usptream.

Will be fixed upstream.

The console.apps one contains no configuration user would modify. I added
noreplace just to the other one.

Disagreeed :)

Sooo, I commited a couple of SPEC fixes to devel. Don't waste your time looking
at it -- as you can see I did not fixed all the outstainding issues. I am
currently waiting for the VCS repository for hosting the project. I plan to bump
the version number and fix the remaining packaging issues (among other things)
in the new version. "Will be fixed upstream" above means, that the fixes will be
commited to that new version.

Do you want some more time to give updates here?

Oh, sorry, I didn't realize I didn't link to the new files.

SRPM:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/packages/system-config-rootpassword/1.99.2/1.fc9/src/system-config-rootpassword-1.99.2-1.fc9.src.rpm
SPEC:
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/rpms/system-config-rootpassword/devel/system-config-rootpassword.spec?only_with_tag=system-config-rootpassword-1_99_2-1_fc9

You should remove %attr(0644,root,root) in %files section

mock build gave me
/var/tmp/system-config-rootpassword-1.99.2-1.fc9-root-mockbuild/usr/share/applications/fedora-system-config-rootpassword.desktop:
error: value "system-config-rootpassword.png" for key "Icon" in group "Desktop
Entry" is an icon name with an extension, but there should be no extension as
described in the Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an absolute path
Error on file
"/var/tmp/system-config-rootpassword-1.99.2-1.fc9-root-mockbuild/usr/share/applications/system-config-rootpassword.desktop":
Failed to validate the created desktop file


If we fix above then build.log showed me
warning: File listed twice: /usr/share/system-config-rootpassword/pixmaps

rpmlint reported
system-config-rootpassword.noarch: W: conffile-without-noreplace-flag
/etc/security/console.apps/system-config-rootpassword
A configuration file is stored in your package without the noreplace flag.
A way to resolve this is to put the following in your SPEC file:

%config(noreplace) /etc/your_config_file_here

system-config-rootpassword.src:22: W: unversioned-explicit-obsoletes
redhat-config-rootpassword
The specfile contains an unversioned Obsoletes: token, which will match all
older, equal and newer versions of the obsoleted thing.  This may cause update
problems, restrict future package/provides naming, and may match something it
was originally not inteded to match -- make the Obsoletes versioned if
possible.

any updates here?

15:01 <lkundrak> the desktop file change was rawhide in the buildsys change some
short time after I commited the current package
15:01 <lkundrak> the configfile things are intentional, I described them in the
bug iirc
15:02 <lkundrak> so is the unversioned obsolete
15:04 <paragan> lkundrak okay for conffile
15:05 <paragan> lkundrak dunno currently desktop file issue is there or not
15:06 <paragan> but still I see you can modify desktop removing extension .png
15:06 <paragan> lkundrak want to solve => You should remove
%attr(0644,root,root) in %files section
15:07 <paragan> okay for unversioned obsolete
