- starting review -

Comment 2 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2009-05-22 16:14:52 UTC
OK - package built with mock (tested on F-10 x86_64 & F-11 x86).
OK - rpmlint libglpng on installed library is quiet.
OK - library has a SONAME:
 0x000000000000000e (SONAME)             Library soname: [libglpng.so.1]
Warning(OK) - Unused direct dependencies :
# ldd -d -u /usr/lib64/libglpng.so.1.45
Unused direct dependencies:
	
	/usr/lib64/libpng12.so.0
	/usr/lib64/libGL.so.1
This is weird since thoses are exactly the one that would be suggested to be usefull. One more reason not to trust too much unused direct dependencies.
But at least, I don't understand why the Author speak about zlib ? It doesn't seems used from this library: quoting from glpng.htm:
"It is implemented using modified versions of the LibPNG 1.0.2 and ZLib 1.1.3 libraries."

Warning(OK) - directory owned by multiple package: /usr/include/GL:
  Since this libglpng-devel doesn't depend on another package that would own this directory, this is fine to own it.

OK - source from package and website match:
$ sha1sum libglpng_1.45.orig.tar.gz 
98d9298c2a8588d4731af1ce22cfbf79ea5349cd  libglpng_1.45.orig.tar.gz

Warning(OK) - package doesn't bundle a License file, but header is explicit (MIT)

Usability test:
Tested with chromium (built time/ runtime)
OK - (funny).

This package is APPROVED

I believe the original original tarbal (not the Debian one we're using
since upstream is dead) indeed contained modified versions of libpng
and zlib (see src/Makefile.LINUX). But the new Debian provided Makefile
doesn't use those but uses the system versions instead. As for referencing
zlib, well libpng uses zlib.

Thanks!
