Hey Lukas,

thanks for packaging this. I'll review this, but I cannot sponsor you. It's best to write a mail to the SIGs mailing list:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Mono

One first hint for the package: only use %{buildroot} or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
Furthermore the cd .. seems unnecessary.

Paul,

thanks for helping me here. Both hints fixed.

$ rpmlint -i gio-sharp.spec 
0 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings.

I have uploaded the Spec to the same place (overwriting old files). Is this good approach or should I increment the release number?

ps - much more interesting package is bug 635450 but it depends on this one (and I am not able to use koji until this one gets approved)

The formal review.

Further (more formal) review:
- MUST: rpmlint must be run on every package. The output should be posted
in the review.

OK

- MUST: The package MUST successfully compile and build into binary rpms on at
least one primary architecture.

tested on i686 and x64_86

- MUST: If the package does not successfully compile, build or work on an
architecture, then those architectures should be listed in the spec in
ExcludeArch. Each architecture listed in ExcludeArch MUST have a bug filed in
bugzilla, describing the reason that the package does not compile/build/work on
that architecture. The bug number MUST be placed in a comment, next to the
corresponding ExcludeArch line.
OK

- MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires, except for any
that are listed in the exceptions section of the Packaging Guidelines ;
inclusion of those as BuildRequires is optional. Apply common sense.
OK

- MUST: A package must not contain any duplicate files in the %files listing.
OK

- MUST: Permissions on files must be set properly. Executables should be set
with executable permissions, for example. Every %files section must include a
%defattr(...) line.
OK

- MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf
%{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
OK

- MUST: Each package must consistently use macros.
OK

- MUST: The package must contain code, or permissable content.
OK

- MUST: Header files must be in a -devel package.
OK

- MUST: Packages containing pkgconfig(.pc) files must 'Requires: pkgconfig'

- MUST: In the vast majority of cases, devel packages must require the base
package using a fully versioned dependency: Requires: %{name} =
%{version}-%{release}
OK

- MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by other
packages. The rule of thumb here is that the first package to be installed
should own the files or directories that other packages may rely upon. This
means, for example, that no package in Fedora should ever share ownership with
any of the files or directories owned by the filesystem or man package. If you
feel that you have a good reason to own a file or directory that another
package owns, then please present that at package review time.
OK

- MUST: At the beginning of %install, each package MUST run rm -rf %{buildroot}
(or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
OK

- MUST: All filenames in rpm packages must be valid UTF-8.
OK

*************************************************************

From my side this package is fine. Only remove the empty ChangeLog from the %doc listing.
After that please write a mail to the Mono SIGs mailing list and ask for sponsoring.

Fixed. I have uploaded the new version to the same link. Paul thanks for your review. I will send the mail. Thanks again.

Somebody else uploaded the spec and its already in Fedora.

See bug 639350.
