Description Miroslav Suchý 2008-10-14 10:39:33 UTC
Spec: http://miroslav.suchy.cz/fedora/perl-Crypt-GeneratePassword/perl-Crypt-GeneratePassword.spec
SRPM: http://miroslav.suchy.cz/fedora/perl-Crypt-GeneratePassword/perl-Crypt-GeneratePassword-0.03-3.f10.src.rpm
Description:
Crypt::GeneratePassword generates random passwords that are (more or less)
pronounceable. Unlike Crypt::RandPasswd, it doesn't use the FIPS-181 NIST
standard, which is proven to be insecure. It does use a similar interface,
so it should be a drop-in replacement in most cases.

Scratch build:

$ rpmlint perl-Crypt-GeneratePassword-0.03-3.fc10.noarch.rpm
1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings.
$ rpmlint perl-Crypt-GeneratePassword-0.03-3.fc10.src.rpm

Not much to say here, really.  I guess I could point out that most people tend to prefer calling iconv over patching to fix utf8 issues, but that's up to you.

* source files match upstream:
   4274d1aedcdd6e5ad54f417390dae75bc9231726c7431ab1aee40a507b3748c3  
   Crypt-GeneratePassword-0.03.tar.gz
* package meets naming and versioning guidelines.
* specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently.
* summary is OK.
* 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(Crypt::GeneratePassword) = 0.03
   perl-Crypt-GeneratePassword = 0.03-3.fc10
  =
   perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.10.0)
   perl(Exporter)
   perl(strict)
   perl(vars)

* %check is present and the one test passes.  It's about the minimal useful test 
   suite you can get for a Perl module, but it's there.
* owns the directories it creates.
* doesn't own any directories it shouldn't.
* no duplicates in %files.
* file permissions are appropriate.
* code, not content.
* documentation is small, so no -doc subpackage is necessary.
* %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package.

Any reason this ticket is still open?

Comment 5 Miroslav Suchý 2008-12-03 11:33:41 UTC
Hmm, there is one problem.
We both missed that is package is already included:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=452458
But it now bring the situation that I'm owner of F-10, F-9, EL-4 and  EL-5 branch. And nigelj is owner of devel and F-8.
