There was some missing build-requires, I fix them : Spec URL: http://static.bogado.net/rpm/raw-thumbnailer.spec SRPM URL: http://static.bogado.net/rpm/raw-thumbnailer-0.99.1-2.bog12.src.rpm
Hi, I'm not (yet) a packager, anyway I'd like to make an informal review of your package. Moreover I'd like to see it in the repos :-) * Since your package install GConf files, you must refer to the following rules: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets#GConf Don't forget to add pre/post-installation actions as described, and also the "--disable-schemas-install" option in %configure, in your %build section. * The package also install XML mime files, you must refer to: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets#mimeinfo and correct your .spec according to this. * A little detail: in your changelog, all your entries must be sorted from the most recent to the oldest ;)
ping?
Ops, I am looking into it, I believe that I even made the specs and rpms fixing those issues. But since I am having some problems with time I didn't uploaded them yet, sorry.
There, the links with the changes appointed by ALMORABITY Mohamed : Spec URL: http://static.bogado.net/rpm/raw-thumbnailer.spec SRPM URL: http://static.bogado.net/rpm/raw-thumbnailer-0.99.1-3.bog12.src.rpm
Looks better :-). I will review your package (I'm now sponsored ^^). rpmlint is silent, and mock builds fine the package for F11, F12 and rawhide. Some (little) remarks and changes I suggest you: * according to the comments in the source code, the License tag should be « GPLv2+ »; * your BuildRequires seem all OK (no useless BR nor missing one according to configure.ac in the sources, mock builds fine your package); anyway you should replace « perl-XML-Parser » by « perl(XML::Parser) », as recommanded for Perl modules called as Requires/BuildRequires. * I suggested in my comment #2 to add the option « --disable-schemas-install » in your %configure. Thanks to this option, you'll don't need the line « export GCONF_DISABLE_MAKEFILE_SCHEMA_INSTALL=1 » in your %install section. Upstream developers handle correctly this option (see in sources data/Makefile.am), let's use it to honor them ;) * the scriptlets are now OK for the GConf files installation. Anyway you should leave the « %{name}.schemas » template in the scriptlets: replace all the occurences of « %{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/raw-thumbnailer.schemas » with « %{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/%{name}.schemas » (dont forget also in %files). This is a good practice to use macros wherever it's possible to make easier the maintenance. * GConf files should not have the « %config(noreplace) » tag in %files, « %config » is enough (whatever rpmlint says, it's a false positive for GConf files ;-) ) * there's a README file in the sources, but it is empty, so it's OK not to add it in %doc :) Although it's a very little detail, maybe upstream should do something for this file (fill it or remove it from sources ^^).
Ping?
Made the changes, I did not yet tested them, since I don't have full access to my fedora machine right now (just a ssh connection) but it did compiled well, and passed the rpmlint test (with the exception of the false positive you noted above). Spec URL: http://static.bogado.net/rpm/raw-thumbnailer.spec SRPM URL: http://static.bogado.net/rpm/raw-thumbnailer-0.99.1-4.bog12.src.rpm
It looks very nice :-) Two few modifications and I will approve your package: * don't forget to correct the License tag, as said above: GPLv2+ instead of GPLv2, * finally the GConf schema files don't need to be tagged as %config files, according to some recent reviews. So you should even remove the %config tag in the line: %config %{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/%{name}.schemas
This change does changes the warning on the rpmlint exit, but I will take your advice on comment #6 and ignore it. The update rpms are linked below : Spec URL: http://static.bogado.net/rpm/raw-thumbnailer.spec SRPM URL: http://static.bogado.net/rpm/raw-thumbnailer-0.99.1-5.bog12.src.rpm
* MUST: rpmlint must be run on every package. The output should be posted in the review. OK * MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines . OK * MUST: The spec file name must match the base package %{name}, in the format %{name}.spec unless your package has an exemption. OK * MUST: The package must meet the Packaging Guidelines OK * MUST: The package must be licensed with a Fedora approved license and meet the Licensing Guidelines OK (GPLv2 or more) * MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual license. OK (source code checked) * MUST: If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the license(s) for the package must be included in %doc. OK * MUST: The spec file must be written in American English. OK * MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible. OK * MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream source, as provided in the spec URL. Reviewers should use md5sum for this task. If no upstream URL can be specified for this package, please see the Source URL Guidelines for how to deal with this. OK (RPM source archive has the same MD5 sum than the one downloaded: 8b166320b17fa906bf0503ed3b6ba226) * MUST: The package MUST successfully compile and build into binary rpms on at least one primary architecture. OK (tested on koji: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2014878 and http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2014869) * MUST: If the package does not successfully compile, build or work on an architecture, then those architectures should be listed in the spec in ExcludeArch. Each architecture listed in ExcludeArch MUST have a bug filed in bugzilla, describing the reason that the package does not compile/build/work on that architecture. The bug number MUST be placed in a comment, next to the corresponding ExcludeArch line. N/A * MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires, except for any that are listed in the exceptions section of the Packaging Guidelines; inclusion of those as BuildRequires is optional. Apply common sense. OK * MUST: The spec file MUST handle locales properly. This is done by using the %find_lang macro. Using %{_datadir}/locale/* is strictly forbidden. N/A * MUST: Every binary RPM package (or subpackage) which stores shared library files (not just symlinks) in any of the dynamic linker's default paths, must call ldconfig in %post and %postun. N/A * MUST: Packages must NOT bundle copies of system libraries. OK * MUST: If the package is designed to be relocatable, the packager must state this fact in the request for review, along with the rationalization for relocation of that specific package. Without this, use of Prefix: /usr is considered a blocker. N/A * MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates. If it does not create a directory that it uses, then it should require a package which does create that directory. OK * MUST: A Fedora package must not list a file more than once in the spec file's %files listings. OK * MUST: Permissions on files must be set properly. Executables should be set with executable permissions, for example. Every %files section must include a %defattr(...) line. OK * MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT). OK * MUST: Each package must consistently use macros. OK * MUST: The package must contain code, or permissable content. OK * MUST: Large documentation files must go in a -doc subpackage. (The definition of large is left up to the packager's best judgement, but is not restricted to size. Large can refer to either size or quantity). N/A * MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the runtime of the application. To summarize: If it is in %doc, the program must run properly if it is not present. OK * MUST: Header files must be in a -devel package. N/A * MUST: Static libraries must be in a -static package. N/A * MUST: Packages containing pkgconfig(.pc) files must 'Requires: pkgconfig' (for directory ownership and usability). N/A * MUST: If a package contains library files with a suffix (e.g. libfoo.so.1.1), then library files that end in .so (without suffix) must go in a -devel package. N/A * MUST: In the vast majority of cases, devel packages must require the base package using a fully versioned dependency: Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release} N/A * MUST: Packages must NOT contain any .la libtool archives, these must be removed in the spec if they are built. OK * MUST: Packages containing GUI applications must include a %{name}.desktop file, and that file must be properly installed with desktop-file-install in the %install section. If you feel that your packaged GUI application does not need a .desktop file, you must put a comment in the spec file with your explanation. N/A * MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by other packages. The rule of thumb here is that the first package to be installed should own the files or directories that other packages may rely upon. This means, for example, that no package in Fedora should ever share ownership with any of the files or directories owned by the filesystem or man package. If you feel that you have a good reason to own a file or directory that another package owns, then please present that at package review time. OK * MUST: At the beginning of %install, each package MUST run rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT). OK * MUST: All filenames in rpm packages must be valid UTF-8. OK This package is APPROVED!
