Review Request: erlang-gen_leader - A leader election behavior modeled after gen_server
Last modified: 2010-10-20 12:31:26 EDT
Spec URL: http://peter.fedorapeople.org/erlang-gen_leader.spec SRPM URL: http://peter.fedorapeople.org/erlang-gen_leader-0-0.1.fc12.src.rpm Description: This application implements a leader election behavior modeled after gen_server. This behavior intends to make it reasonably straightforward to implement a fully distributed server with master-slave semantics. This package is one of the requirements for erlang-gproc and etorrent. Koji scratch build for F-14: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2503189 rpmlint messages: 1. erlang-gen_leader.ppc: E: no-binary 2. erlang-gen_leader.ppc: W: only-non-binary-in-usr-lib 3. erlang-gen_leader.ppc: W: no-documentation All these messages should be ignored. The messages №1 and №2 means that I installed noarch application into arch-dependent library - that's exactly like Erlang/OTP is designed - it stores all its libraries under %{_libdir}/erlang/lib no matter of whether package is arch-dependent or not (unlike python). The message №3 means exactly what it means - there is no documentation for this library (yet).
[ OK ] specfiles match: 67931592d06373389253e810914e8939 [ OK ] source files match upstream: 209792fa762bafdfef1c475b2ffb577c [ OK ] package meets naming and versioning guidelines. [ OK ] spec is properly named, cleanly written, and uses macros consistently. [ OK ] dist tag is present. [ OK ] build root is correct. [ OK ] license field matches the actual license. [ OK ] license is open source-compatible. [ FAIL ] license text included in package. [ OK ] latest version is being packaged. [ OK ] BuildRequires are proper. [ OK ] compiler flags are appropriate. [ OK ] %clean is present. [ OK ] package builds in mock. [ OK ] package installs properly. [ OK ] debuginfo package looks complete. [ FAIL ] rpmlint is silent. 1. erlang-gen_leader.ppc: E: no-binary 2. erlang-gen_leader.ppc: W: only-non-binary-in-usr-lib 3. erlang-gen_leader.ppc: W: no-documentation #1 and #2 are ok. #3 could easily be solved by packaging a copy of the license. [ OK ] final provides and requires are sane [ NA ] %check is present and all tests pass: [ OK ] no shared libraries are added to the regular linker search paths. [ ?? ] owns the directories it creates. What owns /usr/lib64/erlang and /usr/lib64/erlang/lib? Is this package in the requires? [ OK ] doesn't own any directories it shouldn't. [ OK ] no duplicates in %files. [ OK ] file permissions are appropriate. [ OK ] scriptlets match those on ScriptletSnippets page. [ OK ] code, not content. [ OK ] documentation is small, so no -docs subpackage is necessary. [ OK ] %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package. [ OK ] no headers. [ OK ] no pkgconfig files. [ OK ] no libtool .la droppings. [ NA ] desktop files valid and installed properly. Add the license text as a doc and clarify my understanding of the directories and then we will be good to go.

However I added README file. I also ensured that beam-file is generated with debug_info (it doesn't hurt runtime performance but allows users to provide some static analysis in runtime).

One last note which is certainly not a blocker, the spec lists version as 0, but the file itself has a version of 1.4 in it. This looks to be a CVS generated version, but nonetheless you may want to consider following upstream's version.
