Description:

RPly is a library that lets applications read and write PLY files.
The PLY file format is widely used to store geometric information, such as 3D
models, but is general enough to be useful for other purposes.

RPly is easy to use, well documented, small, free, open-source, ANSI C, 
efficient, and well tested. The highlights are:

* A callback mechanism that makes PLY file input straightforward;
* Support for the full range of numeric formats;
* Binary (big and little endian) and text modes are fully supported;
* Input and output are buffered for efficiency;
* Available under the MIT license for added freedom.

Comment 1 Peter Lemenkov 2010-03-04 06:11:51 UTC
I'll review it

Comment 2 Peter Lemenkov 2010-03-04 06:37:08 UTC
Notes:

* Url is wrong. Correct one is - http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/~diego/professional/rply/
* The 'convert', 'dump' 'sconvert' utilities are not installed and have very generic names. I suggest you to consider installing them too (with rply_ prefix, for example).

REVIEW:

- rpmlint is not silent:

Sulaco ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/ppc: rpmlint rply-*
rply.ppc: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US endian -> Indian, ending, endive
rply.ppc: W: incoherent-version-in-changelog 1.01 ['1.01-1.fc12', '1.01-1']
rply.ppc: W: file-not-utf8 /usr/share/doc/rply-1.01/LICENSE
rply-devel.ppc: W: no-documentation
3 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 4 warnings.
Sulaco ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/ppc:


* Ignore message about "endian" word.
* Add Release (w/o %{?dist}) to version in changelog, e.g.

* Wed Mar 03 2010 Mario Ceresa mrceresa rply 1.01-1

Note "-1" at the end of the string.

* I strongly recommend to NOT fix the issue with LICENSE file being not UTF-8 encoded, since it may have legal issues if we'll change licensing information.

Sulaco ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES: 

- The package MUST successfully compile and build into binary rpms on at least one primary architecture, but, unfortunately, it fails to build on x86_64 doe to lib/lib64 issues.

Comment 3 Ralf Corsepius 2010-03-04 06:43:36 UTC
Let me add: 
- compilation is not verbose.

Comment 4 Peter Lemenkov 2010-03-04 06:49:06 UTC
Regarding the issue with lib/lib64 - please, change install rule for library files in the following way:

# Installs the target file
install(TARGETS rply LIBRARY DESTINATION lib${LIB_SUFFIX})

${LIB_SUFFIX} is set to 64 on 64-bit platforms, and unset on others. Just FYI - take a look at the build logs on different architectures:

Comment 5 Mario Ceresa 2010-03-04 14:32:42 UTC
Hello Peter, hello Ralf,

- Fixed:
-- verbose compilation
-- url
-- installed rply_{convert,sconvert,dump}
-- changelog
-- lib/lib64: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2030450

Thanks Peter for pointing me to LIB_SUFFIX: I had the lib/lib64 error in another package and I wasn't able to solve it by my own.
