Note that this is a review for unretirement. I've taken the previous spec file and updated it to use pyproject macros and to the latest upstream release.

Comment 1 Jelle van der Waa 2025-10-28 13:24:31 UTC
* No unit tests are being run while possible via `PYTHONPATH=. dnslib/test_decode.py`, they re-use the unittest runner or simply `VERSIONS=python ./run_tests.sh`
* Running the upstream license through https://tools.spdx.org/apps/check_license seems to suggest this is BSD-2-Clause (Callaway-BSD is not a valid SPDX license https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/update-existing-packages/ )

Comment 2 Jelle van der Waa 2025-10-28 13:26:08 UTC
Minor correction VERSIONS=python3 ./run_tests.sh

Comment 3 Simon de Vlieger 2025-10-28 13:38:39 UTC
Thanks! Nice find with the tests, I've updated the spec file with the (short) license tag for BSD-2-Clause and %check to run the tests.

Spec URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/supakeen/fedora-python-dnslib/e42ca1ff544e822677fedfab70f4b67c9d6c2fa2/python-dnslib.spec
SRPM URL: https://github.com/supakeen/fedora-python-dnslib/raw/e42ca1ff544e822677fedfab70f4b67c9d6c2fa2/python-dnslib-0.9.26-0.fc44.src.rpm

[fedora-review-service-build]

Comment 4 Terje Rosten 2025-10-28 14:03:09 UTC
> BuildRequires:  python3-devel

Move this to top level package, below BuildArch line.

> %{?python_provide:%python_provide python3-%{pypi_name}}

Remove this legacy line

> %license LICENSE

Likely not needed, part of %{pyproject_files} ?


> Release:        0%{?dist}

> * Tue Oct 28 2025 Simon de Vlieger <cmdr> - 0.9.26-0

Release should be 1 for initial build of a new version

Comment 5 Simon de Vlieger 2025-10-28 14:25:31 UTC
Thanks Terje! I've applied your suggestions and moved the BuildRequires, dropped the legacy, and dropped %license (it does seem like that's handled by pyproject_files and the -l argument enforces that a LICENSE is present); it seems rpmlint agrees with the specfile and srpm. I've also changed the release to 1.

Spec URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/supakeen/fedora-python-dnslib/c2e80c4ab04c59393fec2991660c6ee2dde888f7/python-dnslib.spec

Comment 6 Terje Rosten 2025-10-28 15:30:03 UTC
I got mismatch in upstream tarball, is tarball downloaded from pypi and not from github? Please use the latter.

Comment 7 Simon de Vlieger 2025-10-28 15:46:35 UTC
Apologies, I wonder why rpmlint didn't tell me that. I've used spectool -g to download the appropriate tarball and updated the srpm:

Comment 13 Simon de Vlieger 2025-10-28 17:03:12 UTC
Mmm, that was a lot of sudden fedora reviews coming in; and it seems they came in out of order. I guess comment #9 is the most recent one but I'll retrigger just to be sure.

Thanks, changes looks good to me.

Comment 16 Simon de Vlieger 2025-10-29 10:58:29 UTC
Thanks Terje! For Jelle: do you see anything else, I think you're the one that can set fedora-review to + if you find this to be in order now since the issue is assigned to you :)

Comment 17 Jelle van der Waa 2025-10-29 13:17:50 UTC
Package APPROVED, don't forget to follow the package unretirement process https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Package_Retirement_Process/#claiming

Small nitpick removing the egg-info should no longer be needed as you pull sources from GitHub now. `rm -rf %{pypi_name}.egg-info`
