description:
The Bywater BASIC Interpreter (bwBASIC) implements a large
superset of the ANSI Standard for Minimal BASIC (X3.60-1978),
a significant subset of the ANSI Standard for Full BASIC
(X3.113-1987), and many classic BASIC dialects in C.  bwBASIC 
seeks to be as portable as possible.

Comment 2 Jerry James 2024-03-27 02:12:59 UTC
BASIC!  Wow.  That was my first programming language, about 40 years ago, on a Commodore 64.  Man, I'm old.

I will take this review.

Package Review
==============

Legend:
[x] = Pass, [!] = Fail, [-] = Not applicable, [?] = Not evaluated

Issues
======
- Fedora LDFLAGS are not used at link time.  This is the reason for the
  position-independent-executable-suggested rpmlint warnings.

- Consider adding a VCS tag for the github repo; i.e.,
  VCS: https://github.com/kenmartin-unix/Bwbasic

- Does the yeolpishack.net URL really work for you?  I have tried visiting it
  a couple of times now, and my browser reporst that the connection timed out.

- Would it be possible to run something in BAS-EXAMPLES in %check, just to
  verify that the system works at all?

- Note the incorrect-fsf-address rpmlint warning.  Please tell upstream that
  their copy of the GPL 2.0 license text is very old, since the FSF moved
  from Mass Ave in ... what year was that?  Somewhere between 15 and 20
  years ago, I think.

Comment 4 Benson Muite 2024-05-25 18:05:24 UTC
- Fedora LDFLAGS are not used at link time.  This is the reason for the
  position-independent-executable-suggested rpmlint warnings.

Fixed in updated spec

- Consider adding a VCS tag for the github repo; i.e.,
  VCS: https://github.com/kenmartin-unix/Bwbasic

This repo is no longer actively used for development.

- Does the yeolpishack.net URL really work for you?  I have tried visiting it
  a couple of times now, and my browser reporst that the connection timed out.

Yes.

- Would it be possible to run something in BAS-EXAMPLES in %check, just to
  verify that the system works at all?

Done.

- Note the incorrect-fsf-address rpmlint warning.  Please tell upstream that
  their copy of the GPL 2.0 license text is very old, since the FSF moved
  from Mass Ave in ... what year was that?  Somewhere between 15 and 20
  years ago, I think.

Notified upstream by email.  It has been recently updated:

Comment 7 Jerry James 2024-06-20 22:04:27 UTC
I apologize for being so slow with this.  Everything looks fine now.  And for some reason, I can get to the URL today with no problem.  Whatever was going wrong before must have been a transient issue.  This package is APPROVED.

Comment 8 Benson Muite 2024-10-07 15:36:34 UTC
Thanks. Sorry for delay in responding, could you re-approve the package and reset the fedora-review + again.

Okay, setting fedora-review back to ?
