Description Andreas Osowski 2009-11-27 14:16:08 UTC
Spec URL: http://th0br0.fedorapeople.org/almanah-0.6.1/almanah.spec
SRPM URL: http://th0br0.fedorapeople.org/almanah-0.6.1/almanah-0.6.1-1.fc12.src.rpm

Description: 
Almanah Diary is a small application to ease the management of an
encrypted personal diary.
It's got good editing abilities, including text formatting and printing.
Evolution tasks and appointments will be listed to ease the creation
of diary entries related to them. At the same time, you can create diary
entries using multiple events.

This package was already reviewed and pushed but
given that it's orphaned and the last update was more than 3 months ago,
I had to create a new review request according to the guidelines.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=447751

I removed the smp flags from the make command as they gave me problems when building.

Rpmlint remains silent

Comment 1 Rahul Sundaram 2009-11-27 21:44:27 UTC
Well, I assume you are not interested in getting a review from me since you explicitly removed me. I am not sure you get to arbitrarily pick a reviewer however. Whatever works.

Comment 2 Simon 2009-12-02 18:47:49 UTC

OK - MUST: Handles locales properly with %find_lang

N/A - MUST: Every binary RPM package (or subpackage) which stores shared

N/A - SHOULD: Usually, subpackages other than devel should require the base
package using a fully versioned dependency.

N/A - SHOULD: pkgconfig(.pc) files should be placed in a -devel pkg

N/A - SHOULD: If the package has file dependencies outside of /etc, /bin,

OK - SourceURL valid

OK - Compiler flags ok

OK - Debuginfo complete



Just some cosmetical things, before you include it in cvs

1.)
%{_datadir}/%{name}
please suggest that this is a directory and attach a / behind NAME

2.)
please try expand your description lines to 80 characters or one word less..


APPROVED

Package Change Request
======================
Package Name: almanah
Owners: th0br0
Updated Description: Application for keeping an encrypted diary

Reason: Packager is unresponsive, see #529969

Comment 4 Kevin Fenzi 2009-12-06 23:18:37 UTC
You should be able to just take ownership now at: 
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/almanah

Make sure you look for and reassign any outstanding bugs already on the package.

Comment 5 Andreas Osowski 2009-12-07 05:43:19 UTC
Unfortunately, the package is retired.
I'll ask in #fedora-devel whether someone can unretire the package.

Comment 6 Kevin Fenzi 2009-12-07 05:50:09 UTC
Sorry, the interface just showed orphan when I looked. ;( 

I have 'unretired' it, since I can't find any reason it's retired rather than orphaned. 

You should be able to take it over now.

Comment 7 Andreas Osowski 2009-12-07 07:31:17 UTC
Thanks,
Taking over was successful.
