Description Dave Malcolm 2010-03-17 17:11:32 UTC
Spec URL:
http://dmalcolm.fedorapeople.org/epel-packaging/python26-setuptools.spec


SRPM URL:
http://dmalcolm.fedorapeople.org/epel-packaging/python26-setuptools-0.6.10-1.el5.src.rpm

Note: this is purely intended for the EPEL5 branch, not for Fedora

Description:

This is a python26-setuptools to go with python26 in EPEL5.  I haven't been as conservative as I could, as this is the latest F-13 version of python-setuptools, with the Python 3 support removed, and with some ideas taken from the IUS python26-setuptools.

It is a rebase to the "distribute" fork of setuptools.

I haven't split out a separate -devel subpackage, as in the python26 build (see bug 573151) the files needed at runtime by easy_install are in the core "python26" subpackage, rather than "python26-devel"

If desired, I could instead be more conservative and simply reuse the python26-setuptools from IUS.

It contains the .pyc fix referred to in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=573151#c9

I wasn't able to scratch build in Koji, as it needs python26  ("No Package Found for python26-devel"); is this doable with chain builds?

The rpmlint output is clean, apart from this warning (due to the dist tag):
python26-setuptools.noarch: W: incoherent-version-in-changelog 0.6.10-1 0.6.10-1.el5

Comment 1 BJ Dierkes 2010-03-17 17:24:18 UTC
Why not package as 'python26-distribute' which 'Provides: python26-setuptools'?

Comment 2 Dave Malcolm 2010-03-17 18:05:32 UTC
My bad: this package doesn't actually install :(

I missed the move of easy_install to easy_install-2.6, which meant that it shadowed the version from the main stack.

Updated SRPM:

Diff of specfile:

Fixes the shadowing issue; rpmlint output is as before

OK.  I was following what Fedora 13 did here.

Is the rebase acceptable, or would you prefer a most conservative approach?

Hmm... wonder why they did it that way.  Functionality is the important thing... though it seems confusing to me... most users would assume that python26-setuptools means setuptools...  not distribute.  Maybe there was some reason why they did it that way that I'm missing.  Maybe your reviewer can comment.

This was taken from python-setuptools.spec in Fedora, which is so named because until recently it _was_ setuptools.

I've reworked this to be "python26-distribute" in order to be more explicit that we're using the "Distribute" fork.  I'm renaming this review request accordingly.

They are.

Summary:
Just one things.

The .spec file uses both {buildroot} and $RPM_BUILD_ROOT which it
should not. On a similar but less important you want to replace
$RPM_OPT_FLAGS with %{optflags}

APPROVED

this should open up a lot more.

New Package CVS Request
=======================
Package Name: python26-distribute
Short Description: the "Distribute" fork of setuptools for the python26 EPEL package
Owners: dmalcolm
Branches: EL-5
InitialCC:

Note: this package is intended purely for EPEL, not for Fedora.

Comment 11 Kevin Fenzi 2010-04-26 03:39:17 UTC
CVS done (by process-cvs-requests.py).

Comment 12 Dave Malcolm 2010-04-26 19:00:00 UTC
Thanks

I've added a "dead.package" to the devel branch:
  http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/python26-distribute/devel/dead.package?view=log

I've imported the src.rpm to the EL-5 branch
  http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/python26-distribute/EL-5/

pkgdb shows the package here:
  https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/python26-distribute

Can't build it in Koji until python26 reaches the buildroots:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=2139067&name=root.log
shows:
  "No Package Found for python26-devel"
(see http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python26-2.6.5-3.el5 )

If you like you can request a build override via a ticket to

category EPEL.
