desktop. It is written in Vala for extra goodness.

Comment 1 Susi Lehtola 2009-05-29 20:25:11 UTC
- Package must
 Requires: yelp
for dir ownership.

- Package must own
 %{_datadir}/%{name}/
instead of
 %{_datadir}/%{name}/glade/%{name}.ui

- Is having the icon in
 %{_datadir}/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/%{name}.png
really purposeful? As there is just one icon I'd put it in
 %{_datadir}/pixmaps/%{name}.png
Then you wouldn't need the icon cache updates, and wouldn't also need to add the missing Requires: hicolor-icon-theme for dir ownership.

- I'd nag about using macros for standard commands, but they're still allowed.

**

rpmlint output is clean.

Where did it fail?


Please, fix also the issues raised in the review.

Comment 4 Terje Røsten 2009-05-30 11:47:16 UTC
Sorry, the menu did find the icon, however the window manager (metacity) did not find it, given a less than perfect result. 

Seems like I was confused by the layout, I believed you created a summary of the problems in the top section. Now I see there are more issues. Updated package will follow soon.

Comment 5 Terje Røsten 2009-05-30 16:06:03 UTC
Here we go:

- add req. on yelp and hicolor-icon-theme
- fix dir ownership
- fix license
- preserve timestamps
- detect README changes

CVS done.

Comment 9 Terje Røsten 2009-06-01 20:47:04 UTC
Import, built and pushed to bodhi for rawhide and Fedora 11.

Turns out moserial needs gtk >= 2.14.0 leaving Fedora < 11 out.
If anyone needs it elsewhere, please open a new ticket.
