Description Nicolas Mailhot 2010-01-17 20:10:05 UTC

Comment 1 Nicolas Mailhot 2010-01-17 20:13:14 UTC
SRPM URL: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1928487

Description:
The PT Sans family was developed as part of the “Public Types of Russian Federation” project. This project aims at enabling the peoples of Russia to read and write their native languages, using free/libre fonts. It is dedicated to the 300-year anniversary of the Russian civil type invented by Peter the Great from 1708 to 1710, and was realized with financial support from the Russian Federal Agency for Press and Mass Communications.

The fonts include support for all 54 title¹ languages of the Russian Federation as well as more common Western, Central European and Cyrillic blocks making them unique and a very important tool for modern digital communications.

PT Sans is a grotesque font based on Russian type designs of the second part of the 20th century. However, it also includes very distinctive features of modern humanistic design, fulfilling present day aesthetic and functional requirements.

It was designed by Alexandra Korolkova, Olga Umpeleva and Vladimir Yefimov and released by ParaType.

¹ A “title” language is named after an ethnic group.

Comment 2 Nicolas Mailhot 2010-02-01 09:02:53 UTC
Probably the only existing font set with 100% cyrillic coverage (and people complain DejaVu & Liberation cyrillic are poor).

(very good article in Russian about the font linked from its main page)

=> candidate for default install in F13 ?

=> CC-ing i18n

Comment 3 Jens Petersen 2010-02-02 16:45:49 UTC
Thanks for the headsup - it looks pretty interesting.

Comment 4 Nicolas Mailhot 2010-02-13 10:50:37 UTC

Comment 5 Mathieu Bridon 2010-02-13 14:40:54 UTC
First, one cosmetic nitpick:
$ rpm -qivp SRPMS/paratype-pt-sans-fonts-20100112-1.fc12.src.rpm 
[snip]
This package includes the four basic styles and two narrows styles for \
economic setting.

Could you make the backslash go away?

Also, you define the « archivename » macro at the beginning of the spec but never actually use it. Can you remove it? (or use it?)

Now, to the actual review.

+:ok, =:needs attention, -:needs fixing

MUST Items:
[+] MUST: rpmlint must be run on every package.

paratype-pt-sans-fonts.src: W: invalid-license PTFL
3 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 8 warnings.
  => license is listed in the Fedora good licenses, so those 3 warnings can safely be ignored
    => I just opened #564585 to request that it is accepted by rpmlint
  => the 2 wrong-file-end-of-line-encoding can safely be ignored I'd say (license text probably written under Windows)
  => the 2 file-not-utf8 can be ignored as well (same as above)
  => the macro-in-%description can be ignored as the macro is properly expanded at SRPM-build time, even with --nodeps
  
IMHO, it would be nice to run iconv and dos2unix to remove the warnings, but those are not really important.

[+] MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines.
[+] MUST: The spec file name must match the base package %{name}
[+] MUST: The package must be licensed with a Fedora approved license and meet
the Licensing Guidelines.
  => PTFL

[+] MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual
license.
[+] 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.
[+] MUST: The spec file must be written in American English.
[+] MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible.
[-] MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream source,
as provided in the spec URL.
  => First one is the one I got from the URL in the spec file, second one is from the SRPM.
$ sha1sum PTSans.zip

[+] MUST: The package must successfully compile and build into binary rpms on
at least one supported architecture.
[+] MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires
[+] MUST: Every binary RPM package which stores shared library files (not just
symlinks) in any of the dynamic linker's default paths, must call ldconfig in
%post and %postun.
  => not applicable

[+] 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.
[+] MUST: A package must not contain any duplicate files in the %files listing.
[+] 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.
[+] MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf
%{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
[+] MUST: Each package must consistently use macros, as described in the macros
section of Packaging Guidelines.
[+] MUST: The package must contain code, or permissible content. This is
described in detail in the code vs. content section of Packaging Guidelines.
[+] MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the
runtime of the application.
[+] MUST: Packages must NOT contain any .la libtool archives, these should be
removed in the spec.
[+] 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.
  => not applicable

[+] MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by other
packages.
[+] MUST: At the beginning of %install, each package MUST run rm -rf
%{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
[+] MUST: All filenames in rpm packages must be valid UTF-8.

SHOULD Items:
[+] SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package builds in mock.
[+] SHOULD: The package should compile and build into binary rpms on all
supported architectures.

This package is not approved as the source archives don't match.

Stupid mistake, sorry about it, fixed

rpmlint is not up-to-date, PTFL is on the official Fedora license list
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal_considerations_for_fonts#Approved_font_licenses

Missed it with all the stupid spellchecking warnings, fixed

(sorry about it, I'm usually better than that)

This is a bug in rpmlint & rpmbuild

Upstream probably did the usual in-place archive update (very common for fonts), I'll use the new version.

$ sha1sum PTSans.zip 
d812b275f2b13e59a69671785b53a4eb5805c561  PTSans.zip

I diffed the new spec file with the previous one, no changes but what was asked here.

This package is now APPROVED.
