Comment 4 Ben Beasley 2026-08-29 06:36:39 UTC
I found no defects, and the package is APPROVED. I did have some suggestions regarding the metadata patch to drop criterion. What you have done is not wrong, but the suggestions should ease future maintenance.

===

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

  (It was already there, https://release-monitoring.org/project/76404/, and I just
  updated the version scheme and filter.)

- 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)

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

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

This was previously packaged, https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rust-sluice; I
note that this is a review for unretirement. See
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Package_Retirement_Process/#claiming
and also discussion of the very new, not-yet-documented “self-service”
unretirement capability in
https://forge.fedoraproject.org/releng/tickets/issues/13498.

The spec file is generated with rust2rpm. There is a metadata patch that was
manually added; it is acceptable, but I have suggestions.

Issues:
=======

- The metadata patch to drop criterion is acceptable, necessary, and
  well-documented, but it looks like you added it manually. It would be better
  to do this with “rust2rpm -p” instead.

  First, while it doesn’t matter in this case, in general patching Cargo.toml
  may affect the generated spec file, so doing it via “rust2rpm -p” is a good
  rule.

  Second, you can maintain the patch comment in rust2rpm.toml, like:

    [package]
    cargo-toml-patch-comments = [
        "Drop unnecessary benchmark-only dev-dependency on criterion",
    ]

  or if you want your full comment *and* want the text to be reflowed by
  rust2rpm:

    [package]
    cargo-toml-patch-comments = [
        """\
    Drop the criterion-only bench target: criterion pulls in a large plotting \
    stack (plotters, criterion-plot, tinytemplate, ...), not required to test \
    rest tests stays enabled\
    """,
    ]

  There’s nothing wrong with your long comment, but it would be fine to have a
  shorter one since patching out criterion is extremely common.

  Once you’ve used “rust2rpm -p”, you can typically reapply the same patch when
  re-generating the spec file (e.g. for an upstream update) using
  “rust2rpm -r”. See the man pages for rust2rpm and rust2rpm.toml for details.

  The last thing I have to say about this patch is that you don’t actually have
  to patch out the benchmark, only the criterion dependency. It doesn’t hurt,
  though.

- Package does not contain duplicates in %files.
  Note: warning: File listed twice:
  /usr/share/cargo/registry/sluice-0.6.0/CHANGELOG.md
  See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-
  guidelines/#_duplicate_files

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

- Package does not use a name that already exists.
  Note: A package with this name already exists. Please check
  https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rust-sluice
  See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-
  guidelines/Naming/#_conflicting_package_names

  OK: this is a review for unretirement

Thank you for the review
I have addressed the criterion patch and re-generated the spec using the rust2rpm -p flag.
