Description Ben Boeckel 2010-09-04 16:19:23 UTC
Spec URL: http://benboeckel.net/packaging/ghc-MonadCatchIO-mtl/ghc-MonadCatchIO-mtl.spec
SRPM URL: http://benboeckel.net/packaging/ghc-MonadCatchIO-mtl/ghc-MonadCatchIO-mtl-0.3.0.1-1.fc14.src.rpm
Description:
Provides a monad-transformer version of the
@Control.Exception.catch@ function. For this, it defines the
@MonadCatchIO@ class, a subset of @MonadIO@. It defines
proper instances for most monad transformers in the 'mtl'
library.

#001 Please use "License: Public Domain".

#002 Why do you have text enclosed in '@' in the Description? Please remove it.

#003 Please change the permission on the .spec file and .tar.gz file to 0664.

> #001 Please use "License: Public Domain".

Ah. Oops. Needs an email to the maint to ensure it's valid for Fedora anyways.
 
> #002 Why do you have text enclosed in '@' in the Description? Please remove it.

Used in cabal description and Haddock uses it. Missed it here

> #003 Please change the permission on the .spec file and .tar.gz file to 0664.

This is my umask. Won't be a problem in Fedora's git or the lookaside cache.

I'll get around to this tonight hopefully.

Comment 3 Shakthi Kannan 2011-01-19 02:11:59 UTC
"Public Domain" is a valid license for Fedora:

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#Good_Licenses

#004 Please post Koji builds for F-14, EL-6.

Comment 4 Narasimhan 2011-01-20 05:15:33 UTC
Hi Shakthi,

We had similar issue with ghc-failure regarding the Public Domain license.

http://www.mail-archive.com/legal@lists.fedoraproject.org/msg00377.html

The resolution was to get the license changed from PublicDomain. Ben had contacted the author and got it changed.

Comment 5 Shakthi Kannan 2011-01-20 05:29:29 UTC
I have sent an e-mail to the author of the project requesting for license change/clarification from PublicDomain. Awaiting a reply.

Comment 6 Jens Petersen 2011-01-28 11:07:10 UTC
As earlier discussed on Fedora haskell-devel list,
dropping libraries for now from the toplevel of Haskell-pkg-reviews,
so we, the Haskell SIG, can focus more on getting Haskell apps into Fedora.

To get you library back under the tracker please submit a bin or binlib
package that depends on this library and make this bug block that package
review.  It is a good idea to submit full stacks of packages and then
to add the toplevel program to the tracker.

Comment 7 Shakthi Kannan 2011-02-07 03:00:43 UTC
Upstream has updated license to BSD3 with a new release 0.3.0.2. Can you please update your .spec file and make a new package release?
