Description: Zero Install is a decentralized cross-distribution software installation system.  Other features include full support for shared libraries (with a SAT solver for dependency resolution), sharing between users, and integration with native platform package managers.  It supports both binary and source packages, and works on Linux, macOS, Unix and Windows systems.

NOTE: Only the ocaml-0install-solver package is built at the present time.

If you want to trigger a new Copr build, add a comment containing new
Spec and SRPM URLs or [fedora-review-service-build] string.

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2024-07-15 09:35:51 UTC
I'll just note that fedora-review complains that the package already exists,
and indeed 0install is a dead package, retired around Fedora 30:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/0install/tree/rawhide

I don't know if this will cause problems / change the process later, but
this does need a full review to get (back) into Fedora so that's what I'll do.

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

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


Issues:
=======

[Some issues were raised by fedora-review, but they were all false positives.]

===== MUST items =====

Generic:
[x]: Package is licensed with an open-source compatible license and meets
     other legal requirements as defined in the legal section of Packaging
     Guidelines.
[x]: License field in the package spec file matches the actual license.
     Note: Checking patched sources after %prep for licenses. Licenses
     found: "Unknown or generated", "GNU Lesser General Public License,
     Version 2.1", "GNU Lesser General Public License", "*No copyright*
     Public domain". 391 files have unknown license. Detailed output of
     licensecheck in /var/tmp/review/2297779-0install/licensecheck.txt

I checked the upstream sources and it's clear that they intend
LGPLv2.1+, but they don't unfortunately include clear licenses in the
individual source files.

[x]: License file installed when any subpackage combination is installed.
[x]: Package requires other packages for directories it uses.
     Note: No known owner of /usr/share/doc, /usr/lib64/ocaml,
     /usr/share/licenses, /usr/share, /usr/lib64, /usr, /usr/lib

I don't know what fedora-review is up to here, but that's obviously bogus.

[x]: Package must own all directories that it creates.
     Note: Directories without known owners: /usr/share/doc,
     /usr/lib64/ocaml, /usr/share/licenses, /usr/share, /usr/lib64, /usr,
     /usr/lib

Same as above.

[x]: %build honors applicable compiler flags or justifies otherwise.

Yes, uses dune.

[-]: Package contains no bundled libraries without FPC exception.
[x]: Changelog in prescribed format.

Uses autochangelog.

[x]: Sources contain only permissible code or content.
[-]: Package contains desktop file if it is a GUI application.
[-]: Development files must be in a -devel package
[x]: Package uses nothing in %doc for runtime.
[x]: Package consistently uses macros (instead of hard-coded directory
     names).
[x]: Package is named according to the Package Naming Guidelines.
[x]: Package does not generate any conflict.
[x]: Package obeys FHS, except libexecdir and /usr/target.
[-]: If the package is a rename of another package, proper Obsoletes and
     Provides are present.

There was an older version of 0install but that was 10+ releases ago
so this doesn't apply.

[x]: Requires correct, justified where necessary.
[x]: Spec file is legible and written in American English.
[-]: Package contains systemd file(s) if in need.
[x]: Useful -debuginfo package or justification otherwise.
[x]: Package is not known to require an ExcludeArch tag.
[-]: Large documentation must go in a -doc subpackage. Large could be size
     (~1MB) or number of files.
     Note: Documentation size is 15130 bytes in 2 files.
[x]: Package complies to the Packaging Guidelines
[x]: Package successfully compiles and builds into binary rpms on at least
     one supported primary architecture.
[x]: Package installs properly.
[x]: Rpmlint is run on all rpms the build produces.
     Note: There are rpmlint messages (see attachment).
[x]: If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the
     license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the
     license(s) for the package is included in %license.
[x]: The License field must be a valid SPDX expression.
[x]: Package does not own files or directories owned by other packages.
[x]: Package uses either %{buildroot} or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
[x]: Package does not run rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT) at the
     beginning of %install.
[x]: Macros in Summary, %description expandable at SRPM build time.
[x]: Dist tag is present.
[x]: Package does not contain duplicates in %files.
[x]: Permissions on files are set properly.
[x]: Package must not depend on deprecated() packages.
[x]: Package use %makeinstall only when make install DESTDIR=... doesn't
     work.
[x]: Package is named using only allowed ASCII characters.
[x]: Package is not relocatable.
[x]: Sources used to build the package match the upstream source, as
     provided in the spec URL.
[x]: Spec file name must match the spec package %{name}, in the format
     %{name}.spec.
[x]: File names are valid UTF-8.
[x]: Packages must not store files under /srv, /opt or /usr/local

===== SHOULD items =====

Generic:
[-]: If the source package does not include license text(s) as a separate
     file from upstream, the packager SHOULD query upstream to include it.
[x]: Final provides and requires are sane (see attachments).
[x]: Fully versioned dependency in subpackages if applicable.
     Note: No Requires: %{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release} in
     ocaml-0install-solver , ocaml-0install-solver-devel

Despite what fedora-review says, this is actually correct.

[?]: Package functions as described.

It will be used to build further packages, so we'll find out.

[x]: Latest version is packaged.
[-]: Package does not include license text files separate from upstream.
[x]: Package should compile and build into binary rpms on all supported
     architectures.
[x]: %check is present and all tests pass.
[-]: Packages should try to preserve timestamps of original installed
     files.
[x]: Reviewer should test that the package builds in mock.
[x]: Buildroot is not present
[x]: Package has no %clean section with rm -rf %{buildroot} (or
     $RPM_BUILD_ROOT)
[x]: No file requires outside of /etc, /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin.
[x]: Packager, Vendor, PreReq, Copyright tags should not be in spec file
[x]: Sources can be downloaded from URI in Source: tag
[x]: SourceX is a working URL.
[x]: Sources are verified with gpgverify first in %prep if upstream
     publishes signatures.
[x]: Spec use %global instead of %define unless justified.

===== EXTRA items =====

Generic:
[x]: Rpmlint is run on all installed packages.
     Note: There are rpmlint messages (see attachment).
[x]: Large data in /usr/share should live in a noarch subpackage if package
     is arched.
[x]: Spec file according to URL is the same as in SRPM.

That looks like bug 2264345.

Thank you for the review!

Comment 6 Jerry James 2024-07-17 19:15:11 UTC
Version 2.18 has been built in Rawhide, after 3 attempts at unblocking it in Rawhide.  Success, finally!
