Description Till Maas 2009-04-02 12:25:55 UTC
Spec URL: http://till.fedorapeople.org/review/unclutter.spec
SRPM URL: http://till.fedorapeople.org/review/unclutter-8-1.fc10.src.rpm

Unclutter hides the mouse cursor when it is not moved for a specified amount of
time. It will be restored it once it is moved again.

Please consider using this text as description:

Unclutter hides the mouse cursor image from the screen so that it does not
obstruct the area you are looking at. It hides the mouse cursor when it is 
not moved for a specified amount of time or no buttons are pressed on the
mouse. Cursor image will be restored once the mouse is moved again.

Thanks, I will change it before importing it to Fedora or when another reason to update the spec file occurs earlier.

Comment 3 Lucian Langa 2009-04-11 10:10:42 UTC
I will review this.

Comment 4 Lucian Langa 2009-04-11 13:02:05 UTC
This is is a simple program, it builds fine and rpmlint is silent.

I note there are several sites where this program is distributed. There are tar.gz version of this package and seems a little smaller than tar.Z is there any reason not to use the smaller package ?

Perhaps later would make sense to provide a xinitrc.d file to start this automatically when X is started.

OK source files match upstream:
        726e829b41e9cb4d6a14cd91ca7efa02125be2be  unclutter-8.tar.Z
OK package meets naming and versioning guidelines.
OK specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently.
OK summary a short and concise description.
OK description is OK - using alternate suggested text
OK dist tag is present.
OK build root is sane.
OK license field matches the actual license.
OK license is open source-compatible.
OK license text not included upstream.
OK latest version is being packaged.
OK BuildRequires are proper.
OK compiler flags are appropriate.
OK %clean is present.
OK package builds in mock (rawhide, x86_64).
OK package installs properly.
OK debuginfo package looks complete.
OK rpmlint is silent.
Ok final provides and requires are sane:
        unclutter = 8-1.fc11
        unclutter(x86-64) = 8-1.fc11
        =
        libX11.so.6()(64bit)
        libXext.so.6()(64bit)
        libc.so.6()(64bit)
OK %check there's no test suite upstream; I was able to run this program and
it works as exected.
OK no shared libraries are added to the regular linker search paths.
OK owns the directories it creates.
OK doesn't own any directories it shouldn't.
OK no duplicates in %files.
OK file permissions are appropriate.
OK no scriptlets present.
OK code, not content.
OK documentation is small, so no -docs subpackage is necessary.
OK %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package.
OK no headers.

APPROVED.

I simply used the same source that was mentioned in the debian Copyright file. The tar.Z tarball is probably the original tarball, therefore I prefer it. But I can also change it.

Imho it should be left to the user that logs in to decide, whether and with which options to start unclutter.
