I'll review this.  I tried building it on F-10, and got the following output at the end of the rpmbuild run:

Since you built shared libraries, too, you probably don't want to build the static libraries.  I suggest passing --disable-static to %configure.  I also see that you are installing the *.la files.  Normally, this should not be done; see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#StaticLibraries.  Is there some reason for installing those files in this case?

I'll do a full review shortly.

Comment 2 Jerry James 2009-01-19 17:17:59 UTC
Sorry, I read the spec file incorrectly.  You are excluding the .la files.  So I've added --disable-static to my copy of the spec file to get a clean build and will base a review on that.

Comment 3 Jerry James 2009-01-19 19:15:17 UTC
It turns out that adding --disable-static isn't enough.  Your attempt to use the system libtool wasn't quite right.  You need to pass the -f flag to autoreconf, and throw away the first of your two sed invocations.  That it, the %build section should contain this:

autoreconf -i -f
sed -i -e 's|SG_T(\"LD_LIBRARY_PATH\")|SG_T(\"%{_libdir}\")|g' \
          src/saga_core/saga_api/module_library.cpp

%configure --enable-unicode --disable-static

make %{?_smp_mflags}

Even then, rpmlint shows that there are still some problems in this package.  This is what I get:

Finally, I see in the build output that there are a number of incorrect printf directives in this program.  They may cause no harm, but it is probably worth checking whether they will cause any trouble.  Look for warnings of the form:

warning: format '%FLAG' expects type 'TYPE1' but argument N has type 'TYPE2'

Some of those look like they will print integers incorrectly on 64-bit platforms.

Can you fix all of this and roll a new package so I don't get confused as to what you have and what I changed?  Thanks.  If you need a hand with any of it, let me know.
