Spec URL: http://jgu.fedorapeople.org/dvipng.spec SRPM URL: http://jgu.fedorapeople.org/dvipng-1.9-1.fc9.src.rpm Description: This program makes PNG and/or GIF graphics from DVI files as obtained from TeX and its relatives. It is intended to produce anti-aliased screen-resolution images as fast as is possible. The target audience is people who need to generate and regenerate many images again and again. Commentary: Patrice Dumas recently made a call for packages to split out components of texlive for which texlive is not upstream. This is one such package.

The release should be at least 16+1 since 16 is the current dvipng from texlive release. there is no dvigif info manual. I don't think the Provides for dvigif is useful. The kpathsea requires is also certainly unneeded since it should be automatically detected. I suggest using make install DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT INSTALL='install -p' to keep the man page timestamp. To keep the changelogs timestamp, you can use iconv -f ISO-8859-1 -t UTF8 $i > $i.utf8 && touch -r $i $i.utf8 && mv $i.utf8 $i I suggest removing the .gz from the file names in the install-info scriptlets, install-info does it automatically. I also suggest using globs for man pages and info files, like %{_infodir}/dvipng.info* %{_mandir}/man1/dvigif.1* %{_mandir}/man1/dvipng.1* The license of the doc seems to be the OFSFDL.

Underwood <jonathan.underwood> - 1.9-50 - Remove kpathsea Requires - Add OFSFDL license tag - Make INSTALL use install -p - Preserve time stamp of ChangeLog and ChangeLog.0 files - Use globbing in filelist - Remove .gz from the end of filenames in install-info commands - Bump release to 50 to fix up upgrade path from current dvipng package from texlive
* rpmlint is silent * follow packaging guidelines * free software * works as intended * match upstream: 9107065e4da9a18dfff2c1a76fbbf919 dvipng-1.9.tar.gz * %files section right APPROVED
Splendid, cheers Patrice. Can I put you as a co-maintainer? Jindrich - same question to you - are you willing to be a co-maintainer?

Jindrich - have added you as a co-maintainer, but if you'd rather not be, it's trivial to change it.
cvs done.
Thanks Kevin. Thanks Patrice. Package imported and built.
