Description UW_Linux 2026-06-26 00:30:34 UTC
This is an initial Fedora package review request for libxs 1.0.0.

LIBXS is a portable C library providing building blocks for numerics, memory operations, synchronization, hashing, random number generation, and related low-level utilities. It was originally developed as part of LIBXSMM and is also used by LIBXSTREAM.

Upstream:
https://github.com/hfp/libxs

License:
BSD-3-Clause

Spec file:
https://github.com/hfp/libxs/blob/main/scripts/fedora/libxs.spec

The package has an existing Packit workflow and has been built successfully in Fedora-oriented environments, including Rawhide, supported Fedora releases, and EL-compatible targets. The review SRPM was additionally built in a local Rawhide mock environment.

The package installs a shared library, development headers, a Fortran module interface, pkg-config metadata, and CMake package configuration files. It does not bundle third-party dependencies.

I intend to maintain the package in Fedora after the initial import.


Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Fedora Review Service 2026-06-26 00:30:48 UTC
Cannot find any valid SRPM URL for this ticket. Common causes are:

- You didn't specify `SRPM URL: ...` in the ticket description
  or any of your comments
- The URL schema isn't HTTP or HTTPS
- The SRPM package linked in your URL doesn't match the package name specified
  in the ticket summary

> %global debug_package %{nil}
Nuh-uh. We want debuginfo in Fedora.
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Debuginfo/

> Version:        1.0.0
> Release:        1.20260625235357766098.main.0.g2132ebbc6%{?dist}
Snapshot info should be part of Version, not Release.
Also, you don't need to make it so detailed.
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Versioning/#_snapshots

> Source0:        libxs-1.0.0.tar.gz
This should, preferably, be a downloadable URL.
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/SourceURL/

Since the project is hosted on GitHub, you can use the following:
    %global git_commit COMMIT_HASH_HERE
    Source0: https://github.com/hfp/libxs/archive/%{git_commit}/libxs-%{git_commit}.tar.gz
Or, alternatively, you can use the Forge macros:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/SourceURL/#_commit_example

> %files
> %{_libdir}/libxs.so.*
You should avoid using a catch-all wildcard here, as it will hide any SONAME changes.
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_listing_shared_library_files

> %files devel
> %license LICENSE.md
As the devel package requires the main package, you don't need to package the licence here.
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/LicensingGuidelines/#subpackage-licensing

Thank you, I will adjust the SPEC file in GitHub repo.

The release strings are auto-generated by Packit, not manually designed.
