Spec URL: http://people.redhat.com/pmachata/tbb/tbb.spec SRPM URL: http://people.redhat.com/pmachata/tbb/tbb-2.0-1.20070927.fc8.src.rpm Description: Threading Building Blocks (TBB) is a C++ runtime library that abstracts the low-level threading details necessary for optimal multi-core performance. It uses common C++ templates and coding style to eliminate tedious threading implementation work. TBB requires fewer lines of code to achieve parallelism than other threading models. The applications you write are portable across platforms. Since the library is also inherently scalable, no code maintenance is required as more processor cores become available.
rpmlint warns that the devel subpackage doesn't contain any documentation. The available documentation is made up from four rather hefty pdf files, so I decided to put it into the subpackage of its own (tbb-doc). Also note that I install the doc files under their original names, that are basically a series of numbers, and only symlink them with human readable names. I'm pointing this out because the intuitive urge to preserve original filenames may well be just my own; will appreciate any feedback on this topic.
The URL tag looks a bit strange - http://flex.sf.net And I agree with the solution you have chosen for the doc files. It is easy both to find what is where and to check e.g. for new versions on the Intel site under its original name.
(In reply to comment #2) > The URL tag looks a bit strange Ouch, that must have been this famous cut'n'paste problem :) Updated spec is on original address. I also added two more patches that fix build issues (parallelism & trivial testsuite compilation problem).
Doesn't build. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=384728 - Source must be given with full URL - Please bump release number every time you modify your spec file to avoid confusion. - Now we recommend %defattr(-,root,root,-) - Doesn't this support ppc/ppc64 archs?
(In reply to comment #4) > Doesn't build. > http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=384728 Problems with GCC 4.3. Release 2 of tbb package contains a patch that fixes the syntactic part of the build problem; and does the build in debug mode, to work around the semantic part of the build problem. I'm communicating with upstream to provide definitive solution to issues with GCC 4.3. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=403569 > - Source must be given with full URL Fixed. > - Please bump release number every time you modify your spec file > to avoid confusion. Done. > - Now we recommend %defattr(-,root,root,-) Fixed. > - Doesn't this support ppc/ppc64 archs? No, it doesn't. Per upstream report they are working on that, but are not quite there yet.

(In reply to comment #7) > * no-ldconfig-symlink Good catch, I didn't realize this would happen. It's fixed now. > * Compilation flags I can't give up on -O0, because anything above that screws the build. (I.e. either triggers a bug in gcc, or an undefined behavior in tbb, not sure who the culprit is here). When upstream have their GCC 4.3 support ready, I'll turn the optimizations back on, i.e. will do the release build instead of the debug build. I made a note about this in the spec file. > * Timestamps > - When using "cp" or "install" commands, please add "-p" option > to keep timestamps on installed files. Fixed.

In case you need to inspect logs, this is the koji task for last spec iteration: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=416087
For 2.0-3: * SourceURL - The correct one seems: http://threadingbuildingblocks.org/uploads/77/84/2.0/%{sourcefilename} ^^^^^ * Timestamps - Please also change the following line (-p option needed) ----------------------------------------------------------- cp %{SOURCE2} %{SOURCE3} %{SOURCE4} %{SOURCE5} . ----------------------------------------------------------- Other things are okay. ----------------------------------------------------------- This package (tbb) is APPROVED by me ------------------------------------------------------------
(In reply to comment #10) > * SourceURL Actually both of them are, upstream probably updated the link shortly after I fetched the sources. The old one is still active, but I updated the link to newer version as you suggest. > * Timestamps Fixed. > Other things are okay. Thanks!
