Spec URL: http://guidograzioli.fedorapeople.org/packages/alure/libalure.spec SRPM URL: http://guidograzioli.fedorapeople.org/packages/alure/libalure-1.0-2.fc11.src.rpm Description: ALURE is a utility library to help manage common tasks with OpenAL applications. This includes device enumeration and initialization, file loading, and streaming.
Few notes about the package: - Name package just "alure". Prefixing library packages with lib is debian scheme, we try to name package closer to upstream name. This: > %setup -q -n alure-%{version} could then be changed simply to (default for -n is %{name}-%{version}: > %setup -q - About license, if they does not name LGPL version anywhere, that means any version of LGPL and license tag should contain LGPLv2+. They also do carry some GPL'ed script in docs. If it ends up in package, this adds GPL+ to tag.

If it ends up in package, this > adds GPL+ to tag. Right, i found this one from author: http://www.nabble.com/ALURE-1.0-Debian-packages-td23972602.html confirming it's LGPLv2+. Some files under doc are part of NaturalDocs, which is under GPLv2+. So License is LGPLv2+ and GPLv2+ Thanks for looking at this, updated file here: Spec URL: http://guidograzioli.fedorapeople.org/packages/alure/alure.spec SRPM URL: http://guidograzioli.fedorapeople.org/packages/alure/alure-1.0-3.fc11.src.rpm
Here is my review of your package. I only found a few minor issues to be fixed. The -devel package should get its own license tag since GPLv2+ of NaturalDocs applies to the -devel package only. Additionally, some further suggestions: - The tarball contains two example files that could help developers to understand how to use the library. You should add the folder examples/ to the -devel package. - I recommend to explicitly list the name of the include directory since it's easier to see where the header files go: %{_includedir}/AL/ - please add a blank line between the changelog entries $ rpmlint /var/lib/mock/fedora-11-x86_64/result/alure-* 4 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings. --------------------------------- keys used in following checklist: [+] OK [.] OK, not applicable [X] needs work --------------------------------- [+] MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines.

Hello thanks for looking into this. I applied your change requests and will contact upstream asap asking to include the license for NaturalDocs files, and possibly the two patches i wrote. Updated files here: http://guidograzioli.fedorapeople.org/packages/alure/alure.spec http://guidograzioli.fedorapeople.org/packages/alure/alure-1.0-4.fc11.src.rpm
(In reply to comment #4) > I applied your change requests and will contact upstream asap asking to include > the license for NaturalDocs files, and possibly the two patches i wrote. OK, fine. Maybe you can also ask upstream to add the complete copyright notice to the source files (as mentioned in section "How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs" of the LGPL license text). Otherwise it's hard to determine that LGPLv2+ is intended. Furthermore, COPYING contains the text of the old outdated GNU *Library* General Public License. Perhaps the author also wants to update it to the GNU *Lesser* General Public License. The license issues are things to be fixed upstream and no blockers here. Apart from them, everything looks fine now. ------------------------ The package is APPROVED. ------------------------
