If you want to trigger a new Copr build, add a comment containing new
Spec and SRPM URLs or [fedora-review-service-build] string.

Comment 2 Ben Beasley 2025-12-09 11:32:50 UTC
The package is APPROVED, but please see the recommendations for better handling
the Cargo.toml metadata patch.


Package Review
==============

Legend:
[x] = Pass, [!] = Fail, [-] = Not applicable, [?] = Not evaluated

The spec file is exactly as generated with rust2rpm, plus a
entropy-fix-metadata.diff patch, greatly simplifying the review.

The patch entropy-fix-metadata.diff should be accompanied by a comment saying
what it does, why, and whether or not it is suitable for upstreaming, per
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/PatchUpstreamStatus/.
You can use package.cargo-toml-patch-comments in rust2rpm.toml for this.
Something like “Remove benchmark-only dev-dependency on criterion” should
suffice.

Furthermore, such metadata patches should be produced by “rust2rpm -p”; it
doesn’t look like that was the case here. That’s important because in the
general case, metadata patches may affect the contents of the spec file, e.g.
when they affect crate features.


Issues:
=======
- Package does not contain duplicates in %files.
  Note: warning: File listed twice:
  /usr/share/cargo/registry/entropy-0.4.2/LICENSE
  See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-
  guidelines/#_duplicate_files

  Not a serious issue; due to reasonable design decisions in rust2rpm.

[x]: Final provides and requires are sane (see attachments).

Recommended post-import rust-sig tasks:

- set up package on release-monitoring.org:
  project: $crate
  homepage: https://crates.io/crates/$crate
  backend: crates.io
  version scheme: semantic
  version filter (*NOT* pre-release filter): alpha;beta;rc;pre
  distro: Fedora
  Package: rust-$crate

- add @rust-sig with "commit" access as package co-maintainer
  (should happen automatically)

- set bugzilla assignee overrides to @rust-sig (optional)

- track package in koschei for all built branches
  (should happen automatically once rust-sig is co-maintainer)

FESCo now states the assignee must be a real person I believe.

This applies only to the "main admin" account, not the bugzilla assignee.
