Comment 1 Parag AN(पराग) 2024-09-30 10:24:50 UTC
Few initial observations
1) Why to specify arch list in this line?
ExclusiveArch:  x86_64 aarch64 ppc64le

See https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_architecture_support

2) Why this package need below line?
%global debug_package %{nil}

See more https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Debuginfo/

3) Why many patches needed for this package? Try to contact upstream and see if these patches can be merged upstream. We want to see no patches needed or distro specific patches needed for any Fedora package.
See https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/PatchUpstreamStatus/

4) make command should follow https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_parallel_make

5) %check section should only execute testsuite not build there.

The vosk-api package depends on Kaldi, which itself relies on libraries that use floating-point optimizations specific to 64-bit systems.

> 2) Why this package need below line?
> %global debug_package %{nil}
> 
> See more https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Debuginfo/
> 
The %global debug_package %{nil} is included to disable debuginfo generation because the package primarily consists of headers, shared libraries, and model data, with no significant executable content requiring debugging.

> 3) Why many patches needed for this package? Try to contact upstream and see

> 
These patches address Kaldi's compatibility with OpenFST, OpenBLAS, LAPACK to ensure proper functionality.

Comment 10 solomoncyj 2024-11-13 02:45:27 UTC
in %build, use %configure, %make_build and %make_install

Comment 11 Manish Tiwari 2024-11-13 19:26:51 UTC
(In reply to solomoncyj from comment #10)
> in %build, use %configure, %make_build and %make_install
Thanks for your suggestions 
1)%configure: Kaldi uses a custom configure script with its own set of arguments, and it’s not compatible with %configure macro
2)%make_build: I will address this change and will submit new specfile 
3)%make_install: Since neither vosk-api nor kaldi provides a make install step, we need to manually copy the files to the appropriate locations in %install

Comment 12 Manish Tiwari 2024-11-13 19:55:29 UTC
Did the below changes in spec file
1) Added %make_build macro
2) Removed vosk-model-small-en-us as the vosk-api package functions independently of this model data and the required vosk model can be downloaded later whenever required.
3) %{kaldi_commit} is now used instead of long commit hash throughout spec file.

Comment 15 Manish Tiwari 2024-12-09 09:28:30 UTC
Updated spec file
1) Removed vosk-api main package to avoid unnecessary binary rpm as it does not provide any standalone functionality or executables

A configure script is run without specifying the libdir. configure options

supports it.
