Description Göran Uddeborg 2025-06-17 08:10:20 UTC
Spec URL: https://www.uddeborg.se/portsentry/portsentry.spec
SRPM URL: https://www.uddeborg.se/portsentry/portsentry-2.0.1^20250616git3c0b5a3-1.fc43.src.rpm

Description: 
Portsentry monitors network traffic in order to detect port scans in real-time. It can identify several types of scans, including TCP, SYN, FIN, XMAS, and NULL scans and UDP probing.

Comment 4 Göran Uddeborg 2025-08-05 09:56:18 UTC
Thanks a lot for your review!

You probably realised, but just in case: the discrepancy in the spec file name, with and without version number, was just because I wanted to keep the original version available during the review if anyone wanted to compare. It is without version number in the SRPM and the repo.

About your comments

a) Yes, a good idea.

b) and e) That I missed. I wonder if that really is intentional. The whole thing was recently relicensed to BSD-2-Clause recently. I'll update the spec, and also check with Marcus if it might be a mistke: https://github.com/portsentry/portsentry/issues/159

c) Nothing to comment, right?

d) I already am in contact with him, he knows this work is ongoing.

f) Good question, I was thinking about that but wasn't sure what to do. Portsentry can be run in various modes, it can just log, it can block itself, or it can integrate with fail2ban. See the top of the README. Thus a hard requirement seemed inappropriate. Perhaps a "recommends" would be better? Or maybe the fail2ban configuration files should be factored out in a separate (small) subpackage, that does require fail2ban? I chose the recommends option for now, but am open to ideas. What do you think?

A new version, where I've also upgraded to the most recent upstreams version 2.0.3, is available at

Spec URL: https://www.uddeborg.se/portsentry/portsentry-2.0.3.spec
SRPM URL: https://www.uddeborg.se/portsentry/portsentry-2.0.3-1.fc43.src.rpm

Comments:
a) To ensure all directories are owned, need to change
Recommends: fail2ban
to
Requires:	fail2ban-server

It is reasonable to move the config files into a sub-package and have the sub-package
require fail2ban-server, but having them all in the main package seems fine unless you
think the extra dependency will be inappropriate for most usecases.
b) Please add at least some parts of the file namse for:
%_mandir/man8/*
%config(noreplace) %_sysconfdir/fail2ban/*/*

This will help prevent conflicts should new files be installed.

Comment 7 Göran Uddeborg 2025-08-18 14:51:09 UTC
Thank you for more good comments!

a) I'm not sure it would be inappropriate for MOST usecases. But according to the upstreams developer, a common usecase is to have this installed in an internal network to discover rogue servers. In that case you rather want to get an alert so you can do something about the server itself, rather than just blocking on the attacked hosts.

For that reason I did do the split. The "portsentry" package now recommends "portsentry-fail2ban", while the latter requires "fail2ban-server" (and the main "portsentry" package). In that way a default installation will include the fail2ban part, but it is possible to avoid it in cases where it would mean bloat and where you care about it.

b) I've done as suggested, listing complete paths. Now using a glob only for the package specific directory in /etc.

About the license discrepancy from the previous round: that is intentional: https://github.com/portsentry/portsentry/issues/159

Comment 13 Göran Uddeborg 2025-09-09 09:08:15 UTC
There are frequent upstreams patch releases currently. In 2.0.5 a change was made that simplified the packaging slightly. A cmake option is used that avoids the workaround in the %install section that removed the copy of the license file in the wrong place.

Comments:
a) Koji build:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=137750548
b) fail2ban package should have a license file or require the main package
c) Documentation is not too large, but still maybe worth creating a noarch doc sub package
d) Man pages and some documentation files are under Common Public License 1.0
https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/%40fedora-review/fedora-review-2373124-portsentry/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/09537206-portsentry/fedora-review/licensecheck.txt
so license should be
BSD-2-Clause AND BSD-1-Clause AND CPL-1.0
e) The systemd install location seems reasonable, it would be preferable to use fedora macros, %{_unitdir}:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Systemd/#packaging_filesystem
Maybe upstream could make this a user defined location?

Fedora does not seem to have a pkgconfig file for systemd:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/systemd/blob/rawhide/f/systemd.spec#_1
 The projects below use pkgconfig to find the appropriate location:
https://github.com/sddm/sddm/pull/344/files
https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/cmake/modules/Findsystemd.cmake
https://github.com/rpavlik/cmake-modules/blob/main/FindSystemd.cmake
https://github.com/Cloudef/wlc/blob/master/CMake/FindSystemd.cmake
https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/blob/master/cmake/FindSystemd.cmake

This does not appear to be standardized though.

d) Can PrivateDevices be set to yes in the systemd configuration file?
