Description Rafael H. Schloming 2007-02-02 17:52:18 UTC
Spec URL: http://people.redhat.com/rafaels/specs/plexus-i18n-1.0-0.b6.3jpp.spec
SRPM URL: ftp://jpackage.hmdc.harvard.edu/JPackage/1.7/generic/SRPMS.free/plexus-i18n-1.0-0.b6.3jpp.src.rpm
Description: The Plexus project seeks to create end-to-end developer tools for
writing applications. At the core is the container, which can be
embedded or for a full scale application server. There are many
reusable components for hibernate, form processing, jndi, i18n,
velocity, etc. Plexus also includes an application server which
is like a J2EE application server, without all the baggage.

Javadoc for plexus-i18n.

That's strange.  When I run rpmlint on plexus-i18n-1.0-0.b6.3jpp.1.src.rpm, I
don't get this warning.

Comment 4 Nuno Santos 2007-02-20 15:55:43 UTC
Maybe it's different versions of rpmlint... here's what I'm using, for reference:

$ rpmlint --version
rpmlint version 0.79 Copyright (C) 1999-2006 Frederic Lepied, Mandriva

and am still getting the warnings above on the updated SRPM:

$ ls -alF plexus-i18n-1.0-0.b6.3jpp.1.src.rpm ; rpmlint
plexus-i18n-1.0-0.b6.3jpp.1.src.rpm 
-rw-r--r-- 1 nsantos nsantos 16437 Feb 20 10:48 plexus-i18n-1.0-0.b6.3jpp.1.src.rpm
W: plexus-i18n non-standard-group Development/Java
W: plexus-i18n mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs (spaces: line 9, tab: line 69)

In any case, since the warnings are minor and you're not seeing them, I'm
marking as fedora-review+
