Comment 1 Pierre-YvesChibon 2010-04-28 09:49:03 UTC
Having a quick look at it:

- Fix version
  The version of this package is 0.999375.33 not 0.999375 cf 
  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:R#R_version
- Fix %changelog
  Please update the format of the changelog, the version-release should be on the same line as the changelog entree.
- Fix Requires
  You might want to have Requires: R-core >= %{Rversion} instead of just R

- Fix %check
Although, this show that there are dependencies missing for this package:
> Packages required but not available:
>  mlmRev MEMSS

according to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Changelogs
allowed.

agreed

those are only suggestions for the check and mlmRev has a dependency on R-lme4 -> circular dependency. should have noted that in the spec.

Please see if you can submit then for review & integration. We normally package both REQUIRES and SUGGESTS. See what is the strongest dependency between R-lme4 and R-mlmRev and keep that one (commenting indeed in the spec for the other one).

Since you are already sponsored I will review the package I already looked at. I will try to do it in the coming days.

Comment 4 josef radinger 2010-05-03 11:46:00 UTC
you mean i shall create additional packages (the SUGGESTS) and decide which buildrequire really needs to be there to correctly build?

eg:
buildrequires from A ->B, but not from B->A

yes, this is normally the way I/we do it.

Then you can leave %check in one, and remove it (with explanation in the spec) from the other one.

Comment 6 Pierre-YvesChibon 2010-05-06 18:08:54 UTC

Comment 7 josef radinger 2010-05-08 12:54:32 UTC

Comment 8 Pierre-YvesChibon 2010-09-21 18:11:45 UTC
