Description Jerry James 2009-01-21 20:12:42 UTC
Spec URL: http://jjames.fedorapeople.org/pmd-emacs/pmd-emacs.spec
SRPM URL: http://jjames.fedorapeople.org/pmd-emacs/pmd-emacs-0.6-1.src.rpm
Description: pmd-emacs supports the invocation of PMD from within (X)Emacs.  Specifically, it supplies function pmd-current-buffer and pmd-current-dir, and enables parsing of the resulting list of PMD complaints so that, for example, next-error will walk through the list correctly.

Comment 1 Susi Lehtola 2009-08-13 19:58:44 UTC
Taking over review. Joshua Rosen will perform an informal review first.

Comment 2 Joshua Rosen 2009-08-14 12:18:28 UTC
This is an informal review, I'm new to the packaging process.

Everything looks good to me. There are no rpmlint errors, the md5sums match, I was able to build it.

#  MUST: rpmlint must be run on every package. The output should be posted in the review.[1]	OK
# MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines .	OK

Comment 3 Susi Lehtola 2009-08-14 20:17:58 UTC
Joshua: rpmlint is not silent.

pmd-emacs-el.noarch: W: no-documentation
pmd-xemacs-el.noarch: W: no-documentation
5 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 2 warnings.

These are, however, OK.

**

As an (X)Emacs package, the Emacs guidelines are applied.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Emacs

The name of the package is incorrect, it should be emacs-common-pmd, and the names of the other packages should be {x,}emacs-pmd{,-el}.

See e.g.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Emacs#Template_for_a_package_for_both_GNU_Emacs_and_XEmacs

**

If you're using a space to separate BR:s, don't use a comma in
Requires:       xemacs(bin) >= %{xemacs_version}, xemacs-packages-extra

As %install is a bit long, you could add additional space around it.

Comment 4 Joshua Rosen 2009-08-14 20:44:32 UTC
I've just submitted some comments on 483863. I'm blocked by a missing -devel package. I'm not sure where to get it.



I didn't get any rpmlint errors on the pmd package

rpmlint pmd-emacs.spec 
0 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings.

Comment 5 Jerry James 2009-08-21 15:48:37 UTC
With respect to comment 3, I have fixed the names.  Note that there is no common element, so I have not created an emacs-common-pmd package, which would be empty.

With respect to comment 4, I am utterly confused by the first paragraph.  What on earth are you talking about?  As for the second part, you only ran rpmlint on the spec file, not on the packages.

Thanks for the review.

New files are here:
http://jjames.fedorapeople.org/emacs-pmd/emacs-pmd-0.6-1.fc11.src.rpm
http://jjames.fedorapeople.org/emacs-pmd/emacs-pmd.spec

Joshua's comment was not related to this review. He's a new packager, and the comment was related to the sponsorship process.

Comment 7 Susi Lehtola 2009-08-21 16:14:52 UTC
emacs-pmd-el.noarch: W: no-documentation
xemacs-pmd-el.noarch: W: no-documentation
5 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 2 warnings.

These are expected.

**

Change the %define's into %global's, unless you have a specific reason to use %define's.

**

 %define xemacs_lispdir  %{_datadir}/xemacs/site-packages/lisp
should be
 %global xemacs_lispdir %{_datadir}/xemacs/site-packages
as per http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Emacs#Template_for_a_package_for_both_GNU_Emacs_and_XEmacs

N.B. the difference in %files of the spec file template and your version
%files -n emacs-%{pkg}
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{emacs_lispdir}/%{pkg}/*.elc
%{emacs_startdir/*.el
%dir %{emacs_lispdir}/%{pkg}

%files -n emacs-%{pkg}-el
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
%{emacs_lispdir}/%{pkg}/*.el

"For GNU Emacs, files for add-on package foo should be placed in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/foo."
"For XEmacs, files for add-on package foo should be placed in /usr/share/xemacs/site-packages/lisp/foo."


**

As instructed by the Emacs packaging guideline, change the main package to emacs-common-pmd and put the %doc there, no need to replicate it in emacs-pmd and xemacs-pmd.

**

Comment 8 Jerry James 2009-08-21 20:17:02 UTC
I replaced %define with %global.  I restructured the packages so that emacs-common-pmd is the top-level package.  The %files section now conforms to the guidelines.  New versions:

http://jjames.fedorapeople.org/emacs-pmd/emacs-common-pmd-0.6-2.fc11.src.rpm
http://jjames.fedorapeople.org/emacs-pmd/emacs-common-pmd.spec

Comment 9 Susi Lehtola 2009-09-07 15:44:59 UTC
Whoops, this slipped under my radar.

**

License is OK
Source matches upstream
Spec conforms to Emacs guidelines
Time stamps are kept

**

I find it a bit of an overkill to use wildcards for a single file, so I'd replace e.g.
 %{emacs_lispdir}/%{pkg}/*.elc
 %{emacs_startdir}/*.el
 %dir %{emacs_lispdir}/%{pkg}
with
 %{emacs_startdir}/%{pkg}.el
 %dir %{emacs_lispdir}/%{pkg}
 %{emacs_lispdir}/%{pkg}/%{pkg}.elc
(it's more logical to have the dir before its contents on the list).

With this note the package is

APPROVED

Comment 10 Jerry James 2009-09-08 16:38:37 UTC
Thank you, Jussi.  I'll make that last change before checking in the package.
