Description Nicholas Boyle 2007-11-27 03:50:01 UTC
Spec URL: http://nboyle.fedorapeople.org/qemu-launcher.spec
SRPM URL: http://nboyle.fedorapeople.org/qemu-launcher-1.7.4-1.fc8.src.rpm

Description: Qemu Launcher provides a graphical front-end to all basic, and many advanced QEMU computer emulator options. It allows you to create, save, and run multiple virtual machine configurations, create and convert disk images.

Comment 1 Parag AN(पराग) 2007-12-01 13:02:12 UTC
rpmlint gave
qemu-launcher.i386: E: no-binary
The package should be of the noarch architecture because it doesn't contain
any binaries.

Done.

Updated file:
Spec URL: http://nboyle.fedorapeople.org/qemu-launcher.spec
SRPM URL: http://nboyle.fedorapeople.org/qemu-launcher-1.7.4-1.fc8.src.rpm

I also caught some other changes to make:

Changed group to Applications/Emulators

I'm no longer patching the Makefile.  Until I saw an example in another spec
file, it wasn't obvious to me that it was possible to change Makefile variables
in the make install command (ex: make install PREFIX="/usr"), but I get that
now.  :)

I've left the patch for the desktop file, as I'm not sure of any other elegant
way to handle alterations to that.

Comment 4 Parag AN(पराग) 2007-12-04 03:38:29 UTC
need one more update here
1)directory is not owned by package?
/usr/share/qemu-launcher

2) any specific need to have %clean as
rm -rf %{buildroot}/%{prefix} and not simple rm -rf %{buildroot}

3) good to keep timestamps of files from upstream tarball
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-0239576e441f9ef53d175c4aec8c12868dffb5ab
=>you may like to patch Makefile for that.

I was globbing the files in /usr/share/qemu-launcher, instead of just specifying
the directory.  Fixed.

No good reason I know of.  Fixed.

> 3) good to keep timestamps of files from upstream tarball

I grabbed a timestamp preserved copy from upstream, and am now patching the
Makefile to preserve timestamps on install.
