Spec URL: http://whot.fedorapeople.org/synaptics/xorg-x11-drv-synaptics.spec SRPM URL: http://whot.fedorapeople.org/synaptics/xorg-x11-drv-synaptics-0.15.0-1.fc9.src.rpm Description: This is a driver for the Synaptics TouchPad for X.Org. A Synaptics touchpad by default operates in compatibility mode by emulating a standard mouse. However, by using a dedicated driver, more advanced features of the touchpad becomes available. Features: * Movement with adjustable, non-linear acceleration and speed. * Button events through short touching of the touchpad. * Double-Button events through double short touching of the touchpad. * Dragging through short touching and holding down the finger on the touchpad. * Middle and right button events on the upper and lower corner of the touchpad. * Vertical scrolling (button four and five events) through moving the finger on the right side of the touchpad. * The up/down button sends button four/five events. * Horizontal scrolling (button six and seven events) through moving the finger on the lower side of the touchpad. * The multi-buttons send button four/five events, and six/seven events for horizontal scrolling. * Adjustable finger detection. Multifinger taps: two finger for middle button and three finger for right button events. (Needs hardware support. Not all models implement this feature.) * Run-time configuration using shared memory. This means you can change parameter settings without restarting the X server. Reason for this package: the synaptics package currently in Fedora is discontinued upstream, with the maintainer having agreed to a relicensing the source (from GPL to MIT). The new source is hosted in the X.Org repositories, with a new maintainer. This package is merely a move of the synaptics package to the new xorg-x11-drv-synaptics name to be in-line with other xorg packages. The spec file is a merger of synaptics.spec, and the xorg-x11-drv-evdev.spec (for xorg-related information).
*** Bug 226446 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
formal review is here, see the notes below OK source files match upstream: 41eaa1c77af11166ff5ec4abc013076f545bc676 xf86-input-synaptics-0.15.0.tar.bz2 OK package meets naming and versioning guidelines. OK specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently. OK dist tag is present. OK build root is correct. OK license field matches the actual license. OK license is open source-compatible (MIT). License text included in package. OK latest version is being packaged. OK* BuildRequires are proper. OK compiler flags are appropriate. OK %clean is present. OK* package builds in mock (Rawhide/x86_64). OK debuginfo package looks complete. OK rpmlint is silent. OK final provides and requires look sane. N/A %check is present and all tests pass. OK no shared libraries are added to the regular linker search paths. OK owns the directories it creates. OK doesn't own any directories it shouldn't. OK no duplicates in %files. OK file permissions are appropriate. OK no scriptlets present. OK code, not content. OK documentation is small, so no -docs subpackage is necessary. OK %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package. OK no headers. OK no pkgconfig files. OK no libtool .la droppings. OK not a GUI app. - when libtool is used as BR: then autoconf and automake are redundant - parallel make is not used - see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Parallel_make - you should include README as %doc
Thanks! Updated spec file and srpm available at the URLs above. (In reply to comment #2) > - when libtool is used as BR: then autoconf and automake are redundant the latter two have been removed from BuildRequire > - parallel make is not used - see > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Parallel_make make called with %{_smp_mflags} > - you should include README as %doc added
Package is APPROVED, thanks for the update. In the future, please, increase the release for each published package iteration. Don't forget to close this bug after the package is imported and built.
