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

The only non-conformity I see are the unversioned ".so" libraries.
According to https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_unversioned_shared_objects , the use-case is acceptable if the libraries are plugins (as is the case) AND placed in a private folder of the main package.
However, to my knowledge, xrootd-server plugins don't have a private folder where to put plugin .SO libraries.

Please comment on the above, then we can close the review.
Everything else looks ok!

Cheers,
Mihai

Comment 3 Mattias Ellert 2024-11-01 12:56:07 UTC
As you already pointed out, these are plugins.
Xrootd expects the plugins to be in the default library path and does not use a separate subfolder for plugins.
However, xrootd has something similar to a soname for its plugins, namely the plugin version.

In this case the -5 in the plugin names indicate these are plugins for xrootd major version 5:

/usr/lib64/libXrdHTTPServer-5.so
/usr/lib64/libXrdS3-5.so

This plugin version serves the same purpose as the soname, in a way.
It is possible to install e.g. both an xrootd with major version 4 and major version 5 in parallel and have both versions have their plugins in /usr/lib(64) without filename conflicts.
The plugin interfaces are guaranteed not to change within the same major version.

Comment 4 Mihai Patrascoiu 2024-11-01 13:05:08 UTC
Hello Mattias,

You are right, I overlooked the "-5" major version that's part of the library name.
Ok, marking package review as approved.

Cheers,
Mihai
