this is the correct one...

Simon, you're writing, that upstream splitting is common, gtk, ftp and ssh.
But much more important is: How is the dependency chain? So does nssbackup 
actually work without the gtk subpackage? Does it work without ftp and ssh
subpackages? Do the ftp and ssh subpackages bring new huge dependencies? I
would like to hear your answers. And if ftp and ssh do not introduce a huge
dependency and the gtk interface is always needed, I would say one package
fits completely.

missing Rs:
pexpect (for ssh)
curlftpfs (for ftp)

missing conflict:
sbackup


> So does nssbackup actually work without the gtk subpackage? 
yeah, it should be!

Description: NSsbackup Common files package
NSsbackup common files package. This package is not the software itself 
but contains the minimum set of files to make it run.


> Does it work without ftp and ssh subpackages?
yes!

Description: NSsbackup Fuse SSH plugin
NSsbackup SSH plugin. This package will permit to have the ability
to make backups from and over an SSH location. This plugin use FUSE file
systems.

Description: NSsbackup Fuse FTP/SFTP plugin 
NSsbackup FTP and SFTP plugin. This package will permit to have the ability
to make backups from and over FTP/SFTP location. This plugin use FUSE file
systems.


> Do the ftp and ssh subpackages bring new huge dependencies?
ftp: curlftpfs (currently missing)
ssh: sshfs, pexpect (currently missing)


> And if ftp and ssh do not introduce a huge
> dependency and the gtk interface is always needed, 
> I would say one package fits completely.
You are a fan of splitting it? I'm not a fan of it, because ftp and ssh shouldn't be excluded as seperate modules and there is only one frontend. If there are 2 frontends for example i would split it in 3 packages, common with ftp and ssh support and in the guis gtk and qt.

No, I'm not a fan of it. I even think, it makes sense how you've packaged it.
Ideal place for backups is IMHO still remote and not local (think of e.g. hard 
disk drive issues).

Can you please add the missing requirements to curlftpfs and pexpect (I think,
fuse-sshfs == "sshfs" which is already mentioned)? As far as I can see, these
dependency chains are not that huge and a regular desktop user will have most
of the requirements anyway on his machine.

As we figured out in IRC, there's no need for conflicting with sbackup, there
are no overlaps, parallel use is possible.

[  OK  ] MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming 
         Guidelines
[  OK  ] MUST: The spec file name must match the base package %{name} [...]
[  ??  ] MUST: The package must meet the Packaging Guidelines
         -> See points above and below.
[  OK  ] MUST: The package must be licensed with a Fedora approved license
         and meet the Licensing Guidelines
[FAILED] MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the 
         actual license
         -> When looking through the code, I just can see GPLv2+ and GPLv3+,
            what makes you thinking, that it is GPLv3-only?
[  OK  ] MUST: If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the 
         license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of 
         the license(s) for the package must be included in %doc
[  OK  ] MUST: The spec file must be written in American English.
[  OK  ] MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible.
[  OK  ] MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream 
         source, as provided in the spec URL. Reviewers should use md5sum for 
         this task. If no upstream URL can be specified for this package,

[  OK  ] MUST: The package MUST successfully compile and build into binary 
         rpms on at least one primary architecture
[  N/A ] MUST: If the package does not successfully compile, build or work on 
         an architecture, then those architectures should be listed in the 
         spec in ExcludeArch. Each architecture listed in ExcludeArch MUST 
         have a bug filed in bugzilla, describing the reason that the package 
         does not compile/build/work on that architecture. The bug number MUST 
         be placed in a comment, next to the corresponding ExcludeArch line
[  OK  ] MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires, except 
         for any that are listed in the exceptions section of the Packaging 
         Guidelines ; inclusion of those as BuildRequires is optional. Apply 
         common sense.
[  OK  ] MUST: The spec file MUST handle locales properly. This is done by 
         using the %find_lang macro. Using %{_datadir}/locale/* is strictly 
         forbidden
[  N/A ] MUST: Every binary RPM package (or subpackage) which stores shared 
         library files (not just symlinks) in any of the dynamic linker's 
         default paths, must call ldconfig in %post and %postun. [10]
[  N/A ] MUST: If the package is designed to be relocatable, the packager must 
         state this fact in the request for review, along with the 
         rationalization for relocation of that specific package. Without 
         this, use of Prefix: /usr is considered a blocker. [11]
[  OK  ] MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates. If it does 
         not create a directory that it uses, then it should require a package 
         which does create that directory.
[  OK  ] MUST: A package must not contain any duplicate files in the %files 
         listing.
[  OK  ] MUST: Permissions on files must be set properly. Executables should 
         be set with executable permissions, for example. Every %files section 
         must include a %defattr(...) line.
[  OK  ] MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf
         %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
[  OK  ] MUST: Each package must consistently use macros.
[  OK  ] MUST: The package must contain code, or permissable content.
[  N/A ] MUST: Large documentation files must go in a -doc subpackage. (The 
         definition of large is left up to the packager's best judgement, but 
         is not restricted to size. Large can refer to either size or 
         quantity).
[  OK  ] MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the 
         runtime of the application. To summarize: If it is in %doc, the 
         program must run properly if it is not present.
[  N/A ] MUST: Header files must be in a -devel package.
[  N/A ] MUST: Static libraries must be in a -static package.
[  N/A ] MUST: Packages containing pkgconfig(.pc) files must 'Requires: 
         pkgconfig' (for directory ownership and usability).
[  N/A ] 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.
[  N/A ] MUST: In the vast majority of cases, devel packages must require the 
         base package using a fully versioned dependency: Requires: %{name} =
         %{version}-%{release}
[  N/A ] MUST: Packages must NOT contain any .la libtool archives, these must 
         be removed in the spec if they are built.
[  OK  ] 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. If you feel that your 
         packaged GUI application does not need a .desktop file, you must put 
         a comment in the spec file with your explanation.
[  OK  ] MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by 
         other packages. The rule of thumb here is that the first package to 
         be installed should own the files or directories that other packages 
         may rely upon. This means, for example, that no package in Fedora 
         should ever share ownership with any of the files or directories 
         owned by the filesystem or man package. If you feel that you have a 
         good reason to own a file or directory that another package owns, 
         then please present that at package review time.
[  OK  ] MUST: At the beginning of %install, each package MUST run rm -rf
         %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
[  OK  ] MUST: All filenames in rpm packages must be valid UTF-8.

nssbackup package seems very closed from the result to sbackup (bug #468462).

License tag on this should be GPLv3+.

Tom, thank you for confirming my licensing assumption.

All points from comment #5 have been solved with the package mentioned in 
comment #7, thus the nssbackup package is: APPROVED.

thanks for your review Robert
