Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:59 EST
Spec URL: http://home.bawue.de/~ixs/perl-Class-Observable/perl-Class-Observable.spec SRPM URL: http://home.bawue.de/~ixs/perl-Class-Observable/perl-Class-Observable-1.04-1.src.rpm Description: If you have ever used Java, you may have run across the java.util.Observable class and the java.util.Observer interface. With them you can decouple an object from the one or more objects that wish to be notified whenever particular events occur.
*** Bug 231755 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The construct: %if "%fedora" >= "7" BuildRequires: perl-devel %endif Is highly non-portable, and indeed, causes the package to fail to rebuild even on Fedora machines if %fedora hasn't been defined somewhere. With the still-being-worked-through perl/perl-devel split, the preferred (well, to me at least) and, more importantly, portable way of pulling in perl-devel is to have a buildrequires on the module used to handle the build. In this case, we're in a standard Makefile.PL situation, so adding a buildrequires against perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker) will be both portable and cause perl-devel to be pulled in. Replace the conditional with a BuildRequires: perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker) and I'll approve the package. + source files match upstream: a4fe8e71f0082e51d5d97da865b6a708 Class-Observable-1.04.tar.gz a4fe8e71f0082e51d5d97da865b6a708 ../Class-Observable-1.04.tar.gz + package meets naming and versioning guidelines. + specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently. + dist tag is present. + build root is correct. + license field matches the actual license. + license is open source-compatible. License text not included upstream. + latest version is being packaged. + BuildRequires are proper. + compiler flags are appropriate. + %clean is present. + package installs properly O noarch -- no debuginfo package + rpmlint is silent. + final provides and requires are sane: == provides perl(Class::Observable) perl-Class-Observable = 1.04-1.fc6 == requires perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8) perl(Class::ISA) perl(Scalar::Util) perl(strict) + %check is present and all tests pass: All tests successful. Files=2, Tests=39, 0 wallclock secs ( 0.10 cusr + 0.04 csys = 0.14 CPU) + no shared libraries are added to the regular linker search paths. + owns the directories it creates. + doesn't own any directories it shouldn't. + no duplicates in %files. + file permissions are appropriate. + no scriptlets present. + code, not content. + documentation is small, so no -docs subpackage is necessary. + %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package. + no headers. + no pkgconfig files. + no libtool .la droppings. + not a GUI app.
