Comment 2 John J. McDonough 2010-07-13 00:02:53 UTC
Looks pretty good to me, and it works.  The only delta I see is that it would be better for it to appear on the "Other" menu rather than "Internet", but it isn't the only amateur radio app with that behavior.

Should there be an update-desktop-database?  I never got that whole business clear.

Comment 3 Randy Berry 2010-07-13 01:07:57 UTC
Originally Ham Radio apps .desktop files were solely in the "HamRadio;" category which put them in "Other" on the desktop. Someone came along and filed bugs against all ham radio apps that the categories were against FreeDesktop.org's standards so they were all changed to "Network;HamRadio;" to conform. Which put them in the "Internet" category on the desktop. Doesn't make sense I know, but I guess logic was not in the mix when the standard was made.

Documentation is here:
http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apa.html

I'll check into adding update-desktop-database

Thanks

Comment 4 Randy Berry 2010-07-13 02:18:04 UTC
No MimeType key in the .desktop file so I guess update-desktop-database is not needed.

Tweak install wrapper. TWlog already checks if .twlogDir exists.

Comment 6 manuel wolfshant 2010-07-17 15:00:41 UTC
Randall, is there any reason to not use the newer upstream version ( http://wa0eir.home.mchsi.com/src/twlog-2.7.src.tar.gz ) ?

I suggest to trim a bit the description. References to the changes over the older version (such as " a new Matrix window ...", "A [...] was added...") are, in my opinion, completely irrelevant, just include a list of features.

If you do not plan to build the package for older distros ( EPEL , F12) you can remove the BuildRoot tag and "rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT" invocations.

Thanks Wolfy,

- New upstream release
- Edit spec per review
- Added desktop-file-install to verify .desktop file, not in review
  recommendations but I figured it couldn't hurt.

rpmlint output:
twlog.i686: W: no-manual-page-for-binary twlog
3 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 1 warnings.

 Done: New upstream release posted after initial review was submitted. 

> I suggest to trim a bit the description. References to the changes over the

 Done: Trimmed the description to basic details.

I had planned to build for all currently supported Fedora releases.

Comment 8 manuel wolfshant 2010-07-19 08:53:52 UTC
The configure script seems to have a small bug, it does not correctly check for the existence of libXpm.so on x86_64. Please compare the x86 build.log (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=2323280&name=build.log ) and the x86_64 one (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=2323279&name=build.log ). i.e.:

checking for Xbae... libraries default path, headers default path
checking for /usr/lib/libXpm.so... yes
checking for XpmCreatePixmapFromData in -lXpm... yes

versus

checking for Xbae... libraries default path, headers default path
checking for /usr/lib/libXpm.so... no
checking for /usr/lib/X11/libXpm.so... no
checking for /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so... no
checking for /usr/X11/lib/libXpm.so... no
configure: WARNING: "Can't find the Xpm library on your system."
configure: WARNING: "The window icon will not be created."

Added configure patch to search 64 bit libs.
