Description Yaakov Nemoy 2008-09-03 03:15:49 UTC
Spec URL: http://ynemoy.fedorapeople.org/repo/xmobar.spec
SRPM URL: http://ynemoy.fedorapeople.org/repo/xmobar-0.9-2.fc9.src.rpm
Description: Xmobar is a minimalistic text based status bar.

Inspired by the Ion3 status bar, it supports similar features,
like dynamic color management, output templates, and extensibility
through plugins.

this package is also an example of a binary only package compiled in haskell.

The macros needed are currently available on the wiki and need to be installed
manually for now.  There is a bug to have them included in ghc directly.  I
will add it to the blockers.  Don't forget to --copyin them to mock, and then
use --no-clean to do the build.

Comment 1 Kushal Das 2008-10-17 21:51:17 UTC
Automated result from review-o-matic.

Koji Scratch build error.

Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2009-05-19 07:31:39 UTC
ping - original package submission is gone

Comment 4 Jens Petersen 2009-06-02 13:41:37 UTC
Sorry update to cabal2spec-0.16 or later.

Comment 6 Jens Petersen 2009-06-20 23:33:22 UTC
I guess you want to depend on utf8-string, X11-xft,  and hinotify?

Comment 7 Jens Petersen 2009-07-02 00:03:32 UTC
Though utf8-string (already in fedora), X11-xft, and hinotify are optional, so we could also proceed with this and add the optional builds later.

Comment 8 Zach Oglesby 2009-09-11 14:19:26 UTC
Updated to include ghc-X11 and ghc-utf8-string as deps, also stopped making up groups.

xmobar.spec-1.patch

You don't need doc/prof for a binary only package, plus other minor fixes.

Comment 11 Ben Boeckel 2009-12-09 15:36:45 UTC
Ping. Status update on this?

Comment 12 Jens Petersen 2010-01-11 09:17:31 UTC
ping-a-ling?

Comment 13 Jens Petersen 2010-01-15 01:22:57 UTC
Yaakov interested in taking this back? ;)

Comment 14 Jens Petersen 2010-05-20 08:14:44 UTC
New upstream release:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmobar-0.11.1

Anyone want to pick this up?

Comment 15 Ben Boeckel 2010-05-20 16:29:00 UTC
I may take this; if I get around to it over the break before graduation and no one else has taken it, I'll pick it up.

Comment 16 Zach Oglesby 2010-06-01 10:02:39 UTC
I am wating on a new computer to arrive from Dell either this week or next and then I will update this package.

Comment 17 Jens Petersen 2010-08-31 06:54:54 UTC
ping anyone?

Comment 18 Jens Petersen 2010-08-31 06:55:30 UTC
If noone else wants to I may submit a new package...

Comment 19 Ben Boeckel 2010-09-01 02:16:38 UTC
I'll take it. I have libmpd to do as well at least. Can do without the optional deps for now though:

[+] MUST: must successfully compile and build into binary rpms on one main arch

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2442474

[+] MUST: if necessary use ExcludeArch for other archs
[+] MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires
[NA] MUST: use %find_lang macro for .po translations
[NA] MUST: packages which store shared library files in the dynamic linker's default paths, must call ldconfig in %post and %postun.
[NA] MUST: If the package is designed to be relocatable, the packager must state this fact in the request for review
[+] MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates.
[+] MUST: A package must not contain any duplicate files in the %files listing.
[+] MUST: Permissions on files must be set properly.
[+] MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
[+] MUST: Each package must consistently use macros, as described in the macros section of Packaging Guidelines.
[+] MUST: The package must contain code, or permissable content.
[NA] MUST: Large documentation files should go in a doc subpackage.
[+] MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the runtime of the application.
[NA] MUST: Header files must be in a -devel package.
[NA] MUST: Static libraries must be in a -static package.
[NA] MUST: If a package contains library files with a suffix (e.g. libfoo.so.1.1), then library files that end in .so (without suffix) must go in a -devel package.
[!] MUST: Packages containing GUI applications must include a %{name}.desktop file, and that file must be properly installed with desktop-file-install in the %install section.

It would be best to add a desktop file.

[+] MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by other packages.
[+] MUST: At the beginning of %install, each package MUST run rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
[+] MUST: All filenames in rpm packages must be valid UTF-8.

Please also include the useful README file.

Basically all fine but since this is a GUI program I think it needs
a desktop file.  You could probably take the one we added for
xmonad as a starting point.

Added README, enabled libmpd and hinotify (reviews finished now), and ship a desktop file.

Comment 23 Jens Petersen 2010-09-04 03:38:27 UTC
Thanks - looks good to me now.
I think you can drop Icon line from the .desktop file,
unless some free icon exists (I couldn't find any).
