Description Chris Weyl 2008-09-07 04:34:16 UTC
SRPM URL: http://fedora.biggerontheinside.net/review/perl-Mouse-0.06-1.fc9.src.rpm
SPEC URL: http://fedora.biggerontheinside.net/review/perl-Mouse.spec

Description:
Moose is wonderful.

Unfortunately, it's a little slow. Though significant progress has been
made over the years, the compile time penalty is a non-starter for some
applications.  Mouse aims to alleviate this by providing a subset of Moose's
functionality, faster.

Can't build this yet, but I note that the %description above is almost completely content-free if you don't know what Moose is.

Just wait until they see Squirrel ;)  

How's this:

-----
Moose, a powerful metaobject-fuelled extension of the Perl 5 object system,
is wonderful.  (For more information on Moose, please see 'perldoc Moose'
after installing the perl-Moose package.)

It builds on the first paragraph just a touch, and points people to the Moose manpage at least...

I still don't understand how the Summary: helps to clarify much of anything, but upstream seems to prefer humor over useful documentation so what can we do?  Maybe consider "Lighter version of the Moose object system", but I don't think it should hold up approval of this package.

Otherwise everything looks fine to me.

* source files match upstream:
   e075052ab45008e512d78dd340ed62b55923a0faf124887088869b1ae5aa7eaa  
   Mouse-0.09.tar.gz
* package meets naming and versioning guidelines.
* specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently.
* description is OK.
* dist tag is present.
* build root is OK.
* license field matches the actual license.
* license is open source-compatible.
* license text not included upstream.
* latest version is being packaged.
* BuildRequires are proper.
* %clean is present.
* package builds in mock (rawhide, x86_64).
* package installs properly.
* rpmlint is silent.
* final provides and requires are sane:
   perl(Mouse) = 0.09
   perl(Mouse::Meta::Attribute)
   perl(Mouse::Meta::Class)
   perl(Mouse::Meta::Role)
   perl(Mouse::Object)
   perl(Mouse::Role)
   perl(Mouse::Tiny)
   perl(Mouse::TypeRegistry)
   perl(Mouse::Util)
   perl(Squirrel)
   perl(Squirrel::Role)
   perl-Mouse = 0.09-1.fc10
  =
   perl >= 0:5.006
   perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.10.0)
   perl(Carp)
   perl(Class::Method::Modifiers) >= 1.01
   perl(MRO::Compat) >= 0.09
   perl(Mouse::Meta::Attribute)
   perl(Mouse::Meta::Class)
   perl(Mouse::Meta::Role)
   perl(Mouse::Object)
   perl(Mouse::TypeRegistry)
   perl(Mouse::Util)
   perl(Scalar::Util) >= 1.19
   perl(Test::Exception) >= 0.27
   perl(base)
   perl(strict)
   perl(warnings)

* %check is present and all tests pass:
   All tests successful.
   Files=46, Tests=2160, 3 wallclock secs
* owns the directories it creates.
* doesn't own any directories it shouldn't.
* no duplicates in %files.
* file permissions are appropriate.
* no scriptlets present.
* code, not content.
* documentation is small, so no -doc subpackage is necessary.
* %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package.
