postgresql-orafce build log

The following comments are based on the Package Review Guidelines and the
Packaging Guidelines. But I'm not a sponsor of the Fedora project, so these are
not official review comments.

- You should post the results of rpmlint command.

- You should apply the common compiler flags defined as $RPM_OPT_FLAGS or
%{optflags} .

- You should use -p option with 'install' command to preserve timestamps.

- You should improve Makefile to enable to build with non-privilleged user.
See the attachment. "make install" tries to make a directory of
"/usr/share/pgsql/contrib", and %buildroot is not used.
I could not build your package because of this problem.

- In addition, "/usr/share/pgsql/contrib" should be owned this package, if you
intend to create the directory actually. It is not owned by the postgresql
package.

Hi Devrim,

I'd love to do a full review, can you update the package according to comment #1?

Comment 3 Devrim GUNDUZ 2008-01-21 00:58:00 UTC

Added.

Added.

Ok, asked upstream for a solution for this.

Done.

Thanks for the review. Will submit the new SRPM after upstream comes with a fix
for the problem you reported.

Regards, Devrim


Comment 4 Devrim GUNDUZ 2008-01-26 09:04:41 UTC
All reported issues fixed (the remaining issue is absolutely was an issue in
spec file btw...):

New spec:
http://developer.postgresql.org/~devrim/rpms/other/orafce/postgresql-orafce.spec

New SRPM:
http://developer.postgresql.org/~devrim/rpms/other/orafce/postgresql-orafce-2.1.3-2.fc8.src.rpm

(Updated package to 2.1.3  to work with PostgreSQL 8.3, which is in rawhide now).

$ md5sum orafce-2.1.3.tar.gz 
dca37c424635bb1a97f26eb223ad6aab  orafce-2.1.3.tar.gz

rpmlint does not report any errors.

Regards, Devrim

Comment 5 Jason Tibbitts 2008-06-27 22:53:49 UTC
I'm not sure what happened here; looks like Ruben missed the vact that you
updated the package.

This did not build for me in mock:
  bison -y -d  -p orafce_sql_yy sqlparse.y                                     
                                                            
  make: execvp: bison: Permission denied
which is a bit weird, but bison is indeed not installed.  I added a build
dependency and things fail due to flex not being installed.  So I added that and
things still fail:
  error: openssl/ssl.h: No such file or directory
  error: openssl/err.h: No such file or directory
  error: gssapi/gssapi.h: No such file or directory
I added a build dependency on openssl-devel and things finally build, although
I'm a bit confused because it doesn't supply a gssapi.h

Can you try doing a mock or koji build and ensure that there's nothing else that
needs to be added to get this to build properly?

Comment 6 Ruben Kerkhof 2008-08-24 10:19:20 UTC
Devrim, can you have a look at Jason's comments?

Comment 7 Devrim GUNDUZ 2008-08-27 08:23:39 UTC
(In reply to comment #6)
> Devrim, can you have a look at Jason's comments?

I cannot do mock build at home (bw issues). Let me check other options.

Comment 8 Jason Tibbitts 2008-10-03 17:13:48 UTC
You can do as many scratch builds in koji as you like, though.  You don't actually need to have a local mock installation at home.

Comment 9 Miroslav Suchý 2008-10-14 11:19:35 UTC
Sratch build in Koji failed:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=879804

Comment 10 Jason Tibbitts 2008-11-05 15:39:08 UTC
It's been quite some time since there was any movement here.  This ticket will be closed soon if there is no response.

Comment 11 Devrim GUNDUZ 2008-11-16 15:50:47 UTC
Please hold this bug open a bit more.

Comment 12 Jason Tibbitts 2009-03-07 22:36:25 UTC
OK, so it's been four more months and there doesn't seem to have been any progress.  Since you want to hold this open even though there's no reviewable package, I'm going to indicate that it's not ready for review.  Please clear the whiteboard when you're ready.  However, I'll still go ahead and close this eventually if there's no progress.

Comment 13 Devrim GUNDUZ 2009-03-25 23:34:57 UTC
Ok, package is now built cleanly in mock:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1258906

I think we can approve this package now.

Comment 14 Itamar Reis Peixoto 2009-03-26 00:07:24 UTC
you can merge your install commands in 2 lines using 

install -Dp -m

your package seems to be good for me.

Comment 15 Miroslav Suchý 2009-03-30 17:29:50 UTC
Would you mind posting updated spec and srpm. That one I can download from your scratch build do not work for me:
$ rpm -Uvh orafce-2.1.4-1.fc11.src.rpm

ToDo:
So do you plan to name the package postgresql-orafce or just orafce. In first case you should rename your spec file and Name, in second you should change summary of this BZ. I like the first option as we can have in feature something like mysql-orafce, firebird-orafce...

The license is stated BSD, but the text in COPYRIGHT.orafunc differ from BSD licence as I know it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSD_license). Can you clarify it?

%{_docdir}/pgsql/contrib/*.orafunc
That should be 
%doc COPYRIGHT.orafunc INSTALL.orafunc README.orafunc

Do you really want to requires postgresql, I suppose that correct should be be postgresql-server, but IMHO.

Comment 18 Devrim GUNDUZ 2009-06-04 19:43:15 UTC
3.0 version is about to be released, and I will update the package then.

Comment 19 Miroslav Suchý 2009-09-17 07:45:29 UTC
3.0.1 has been release on August 21, 2009
Do you want to continue with review or I can close this BZ?

Comment 21 Devrim Gündüz 2009-10-02 22:05:16 UTC
BTW, I changed package name to orafce, instead of postgresql-orafce.

Comment 22 Devrim Gündüz 2009-10-02 22:11:34 UTC
I was wondering whether this package should be a requirement for spacewalk.

Comment 23 Miroslav Suchý 2009-11-17 07:36:40 UTC
>http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/srpms/8.4/fedora/fedora-11-i386/orafce-3.0.1-1.f11.src.rpm

404 Not Found

Anyway, from quick look on spec itself, I still see, that two of my previous comments has not been addressed:
> %{_docdir}/pgsql/contrib/*.orafunc
> That should be 
> %doc COPYRIGHT.orafunc INSTALL.orafunc README.orafunc

And:
>Do you really want to requires postgresql, I suppose that correct should be be
>postgresql-server, but IMHO.

Hi,

Since this is a long time with no post and that I need this software for a project of mine, I have packaged it based on the SPEC Devrim did.

I renamed the package back to postgresql-orafce because I think that's what is best and consistent with other postgresql extensions.

I think that I have included all the modifications asked here. It build fine in koji for rawhide, F-13, F-12 and F-11. Here is the scratch build :

- http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2127126
- http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2127141
- http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2127148
- http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2127162


rpmlint give no warning/error on spec, srpm and rpm.


Tested and work fine here.


Thank you.

Comment 26 Devrim Gündüz 2010-04-23 13:41:25 UTC
Folks,

May I ask a name change? orafce is the upstream name. I'm trying to get of postgresql- prefixes in rawhide, so please let's get rid of this prefix in orafce package, too.

i.e., postgresql-pgpool-II looks terribly long and stupid for me.

Comment 27 Devrim Gündüz 2010-04-23 13:42:07 UTC
... and Jean-Francois, thanks a lot for the work.

Comment 28 Jean-Francois Saucier 2010-04-23 14:16:46 UTC
I have nothing against either name.

For the moment, everything is called postgresql-something. If you say that it will change soon in Fedora, it could be a good idea to rename it to orafce now so that it won't change down the line. But if the naming stay as it is, postgresql-orafce is the way to go.

Maybe we can wait a little bit before importing the package to see what people think about this issue?

Comment 29 Jean-Francois Saucier 2010-04-26 14:33:05 UTC
After discussion on devel list and points raised by the maintainer of PostgreSQL in Fedora/RHEL, I made the decision to match the name of this package with upstream. This seems to be the direction of future releases of Fedora and I think to name this package orafce now will ease the migration in the future.

Thank you for the review!
