Description Sindre Pedersen Bjørdal 2007-05-05 13:23:26 UTC
Spec URL: http://folk.ntnu.no/sindrb/packages/green_nyc/perl-Net-Write.spec
SRPM URL: http://folk.ntnu.no/sindrb/packages/green_nyc/perl-Net-Write-1.00-1.fc7.src.rpm

Description:
Net::Write provides a portable interface to open a network interface, and be
able to write raw data directly to the network. It juste provides three
methods when a Net::Write object has been created for an interface: open,
send, close.

Comment 1 Jason Tibbitts 2007-05-26 21:50:47 UTC
This package is under the Artistic license only and not both it and the GPL as
you indicate.

You need to add build dependencies on perl(Test), perl(Test::Pod) and 
perl(Test::Pod::Coverage) so that the tests will run.

I'd suggest packaging the included examples as documentation.  Some folks have
also been packaging the tests as documentation, but in this case I don't see how
those tests could possibly be useful as docs.

Review:
* source files match upstream:
   b31718768fbe43c78183fd2e45f83dee87b77f60075130e00ed87df96f9bec0b  
   Net-Write-1.00.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 OK.
X license field doesn't match the actual license.
* license is open source-compatible.
* license text included in package.
* latest version is being packaged.
X some BuildRequires are missing.
* %clean is present.
* package builds in mock (development, x86_64).
* package installs properly
* rpmlint is silent.
* final provides and requires are sane:
   perl(Net::Write) = 1.00
   perl(Net::Write::Layer)
   perl(Net::Write::Layer2)
   perl(Net::Write::Layer3)
   perl(Net::Write::Layer4)
   perl-Net-Write = 1.00-1.fc7
  =
   perl(Carp)
   perl(Class::Gomor::Array)
   perl(Exporter)
   perl(IO::Socket)
   perl(Net::Pcap)
   perl(Net::Write::Layer)
   perl(Socket)
   perl(Socket6)
   perl(constant)
   perl(strict)
   perl(warnings)
X %check is present but some tests are skipped due to missing dependencies.
* 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.

Comment 3 Jason Tibbitts 2007-06-01 05:51:04 UTC
License: looks good now.
The build dependencies are sufficient to run all of the tests now:
   All tests successful.
   Files=3, Tests=11,  0 wallclock secs ( 0.34 cusr +  0.05 csys =  0.39 CPU)
Examples are packaged as %doc.

Everything looks good to me,
APPROVED
