Comment 1 Fedora Review Service 2026-01-28 21:56:23 UTC
There seems to be some problem with the following file.
SRPM URL: https://fedorapeople.org/~limb/review/rust-either_n/rust-either_n-0.2.0-1.fc44.src.rpm
Fetching it results in a 404 Not Found error.
Please make sure the URL is correct and publicly available.

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

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

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

The spec file is exactly as generated by rust2rpm with no configuration file,
greatly simplifying the review.


Issues:
=======
- Package does not contain duplicates in %files.
  Note: warning: File listed twice:
  /usr/share/cargo/registry/either_n-0.2.0/LICENSE
  See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-
  guidelines/#_duplicate_files

- The files LICENSE, README.md, and src/lib.rs have CRLF (Windows/DOS-style)
  line terminators. This doesn’t cause a problem in practice, but we should
  correct it. Something like this will work in rust2rpm.toml:

    [requires]
    build = ["dos2unix"]
    
    [scripts.prep]
    pre = [
        "# Fix CRLF-terminated files in the released crates.",
        "find . -type f -exec dos2unix --keepdate '{}' '+'",
    ]

  If you prefer, you could be specific about which files to fix:

        "dos2unix --keepdate  LICENSE README.md, src/lib.rs",

- The last upstream activity was 9-10 years ago. This is a very simple crate, and
  the developer is still active on GitHub, so it could just be “done” rather than
  unmaintained. Still, it’s something to be aware of.

- The MIT license text requires the license text (copyright and permission
  statements) to be distributed with the software, but the LICENSE file
  contains only the Apache-2.0 text. See
  https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/LicensingGuidelines/#_license_text.

  Since the developer is still active on GitHub, perhaps you can get them to
  correct this. Our guidelines allow you to take an educated guess and supply a
  “standard” MIT license text if necessary, but you need to attempt to engage
  with upstream first, and it’s better if you can at least point to an approved
  PR.

===== MUST items =====

Generic:
[!]: Package is licensed with an open-source compatible license and meets
     other legal requirements as defined in the legal section of Packaging

===== SHOULD items =====

Generic:
[!]: If the source package does not include license text(s) as a separate

Thank you, addressed everything, same URLS.
Not sure how to handle the duplicate files in this situation.

> Thank you, addressed everything, same URLS.

Thanks. The dos2unix invocation in %prep looks right, but

  BuildRequires:  dos2unix

is missing. You can get that by making sure that

  [requires]
  build = ["dos2unix"]

is present in rust2rpm.toml.

> Not sure how to handle the duplicate files in this situation.

Something like the following is produced by fedora-review on every Rust
library package:

- Package does not contain duplicates in %files.
  Note: warning: File listed twice:
  /usr/share/cargo/registry/either_n-0.2.0/LICENSE
  See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-
  guidelines/#_duplicate_files

I *meant* to write the following:

  OK: not a serious problem; due to reasonable design decisions in rust2rpm.toml

This is a duplicate listing, not a duplicate installed file; it causes
no harm in practice; and avoiding the diagnostic would make all
rust2rpm-generated spec files messier. Nothing needs to be changed here.

> Filed:

Thanks! I’ll keep an eye on this and be ready to re-review once there’s a
submission with MIT license text included.

Comment 5 Ben Beasley 2026-02-27 10:18:11 UTC
I see that the uploaded spec file (unlike the spec file in the uploaded RPM) has these lines in rust2rpm.toml for all the rust-either_n+<foo>-devel feature metapackages:

> Requires: %{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release}

It’s not necessary to add these: these metapackages already have exact-version dependencies like "crate(either_n) = 0.2.0" that will be satisfied by the main -devel package. If it were really necessary for feature metapackages to have even stricter dependencies including release numbers, then that ought to be changed in rust2rpm rather than repeatedly customizing individual spec files.

Besides that, these added dependencies are on a "rust-either_n" binary package, which doesn’t exist, rather than on "rust-either_n-devel", so the resulting feature metapackages would not be installable.

Comment 6 Gwyn Ciesla 2026-03-03 16:40:20 UTC
Ok, thanks. Updated the non-license bits.
