Description Chitlesh GOORAH 2009-09-11 11:43:29 UTC
Spec URL: http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/RPMS/perl-Verilog-Perl.spec

Description:
This package provides functions to support writing utilities
that use the Verilog language.

Comment 1 Chitlesh GOORAH 2009-09-11 11:45:12 UTC
This package is supposed to obsolete perl-Verilog currently into the Fedora repositories. The reason behind this package review is that perl-Verilog does not conform to Fedora's package naming guidelines.

Comment 2 Jason Tibbitts 2009-09-23 05:38:46 UTC
So this is just a rename review request?  I'll do a quick runthrough.

The Obsoletes: and Provides: needed to rename the package look correct according to the guidelines at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGuidelines#Renaming.2Freplacing_existing_packages.

There are a couple of provides which look a bit odd.  I think  that for some bizarre reason the automatic dependency finder actually parses "package" statements in some verilog source (installed as documentation) as perl "package" statements, and so you end up with the bogus "perl(imp_test_pkg)" and "perl(mypackage)".  That's pretty bad behavior from rpmbuild almost certainly worthy of a bug, but you'll still need to filter those dependencies.  Unfortunately you can't use the general dependency filtering mechanism just introduced because this package is arch-specific.  Perhaps the mechanism at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Perl#Filtering_Requires:_and_Provides will work for you.

The package review process needs reviewers!  If you haven't done any package
reviews recently, please consider doing one.

I'm doing my package reviews regularly :)

Comment 4 Jason Tibbitts 2009-10-15 05:24:22 UTC
Unfortunately I ran out of time for doing reviews and haven't been able to get back to this one until now.  Thanks for being patient.

The odd dependencies are now filtered out properly, but the code you introduced into the spec to do that causes another issue: you are now not consistently using macro forms.  Personally I don't know why anyone would ever type "%{__rm}" or "%{__make}" when you could just use "rm" or "make", but if for whatever reason you really want to use those pointless macros then you need to use them consistently, which means using "%{__chmod}", "%{__sed}" and "%{__cat}".

Honestly, though, the whole spec is so much easier to read without that pointless stuff.

Comment 5 Chitlesh GOORAH 2009-10-16 21:09:40 UTC
Ok, I'll remove those macros. Do you have any issue which might block this review ?

Comment 6 Jason Tibbitts 2009-11-03 15:37:12 UTC
Congratulations on your marriage; I hope everything went well.

Absent the macros, I've no further issues with this package.  I trust you'll clean things up appropriately when you check in.

APPROVED
