Spec URL: http://siddharths.fedorapeople.org/SPECS/lemonpos.spec SRPM URL: http://siddharths.fedorapeople.org/SRPMS/lemonpos-0.9.3-1.fc14.src.rpm Description: Lemon is an open source POS (point of sale) for Linux, and other Unix. It is a general POS, not targeted to a specific business. It has been developed for ease of use and customization, and to support bar-code scanners and ticket printers. At this point, it has been tested with a parallel port ticket printer (Star Micronics, SP500). More information on http://www.lemonpos.org/ Authors: -------- Miguel Chávez Gamboa
I'll review this.
MUST: rpmlint must be run on the source rpm and all binary rpms the build produces. The output should be posted in the review. -OK rpmlint -iv lemonpos.spec lemonpos.spec: I: checking-url http://sourceforge.net/projects/lemonpos/files/real/lemonpos-0.9.3.tar.bz2 (timeout 10 seconds) 0 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings. rpmlint -iv lemonpos-0.9.3-1.fc14.src.rpm lemonpos.src: I: checking lemonpos.src: I: checking-url http://www.lemonpos.org/ (timeout 10 seconds) lemonpos.src: I: checking-url http://sourceforge.net/projects/lemonpos/files/real/lemonpos-0.9.3.tar.bz2 (timeout 10 seconds) 1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings. MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines. -OK MUST: The spec file name must match the base package %{name}, in the format %{name}.spec unless your package has an exemption. -OK MUST: The package must meet the Packaging Guidelines. -OK MUST: The package must be licensed with a Fedora approved license and meet the Licensing Guidelines . -OK, GPLv2 MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual license. -OK, GPLv2 MUST: If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the license(s) for the package must be included in %doc. -OK MUST: The spec file must be written in American English. -OK MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible. -OK MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream source, as provided in the spec URL. Reviewers should use md5sum for this task. If no upstream URL can be specified for this package, please see the Source URL Guidelines for how to deal with this. MUST: The package MUST successfully compile and build into binary rpms on at least one primary architecture. -OK 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. -NOT OK, add BR: dekstop-file-utils, you are using %dekstop-file-validate MUST: The spec file MUST handle locales properly. This is done by using the %find_lang macro. Using %{_datadir}/locale/* is strictly forbidden. -NOT OK, you should install language files with the %find_lang macro MUST: Every binary RPM package (or subpackage) which stores shared library files (not just symlinks) in any of the dynamic linker's default paths, must call ldconfig in %post and %postun. -NOT OK, please use clearer paths in %files, using */*/*/* is very difficult to figure out. MUST: Packages must NOT bundle copies of system libraries. -OK MUST: If the package is designed to be relocatable, the packager must state this fact in the request for review, along with the rationalization for relocation of that specific package. Without this, use of Prefix: /usr is considered a blocker. -OK MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates. If it does not create a directory that it uses, then it should require a package which does create that directory. -NOT SURE MUST: A Fedora package must not list a file more than once in the spec file's %files listings. (Notable exception: license texts in specific situations) -NOT 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 consistently use macros. -OK MUST: The package must contain code, or permissable content. -OK MUST: Large documentation files must go in a -doc subpackage. (The definition of large is left up to the packager's best judgement, but is not restricted to size. Large can refer to either size or quantity). -NOT OK, you have listed database_resources as a doc, but it is not, and left you the folder doc? MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the runtime of the application. To summarize: If it is in %doc, the program must run properly if it is not present. -OK MUST: Header files must be in a -devel package. -NOT SURE please use clearer paths in %files MUST: Static libraries must be in a -static package. -NOT SURE please use clearer paths in %files MUST: If a package contains library files with a suffix (e.g. libfoo.so.1.1), then library files that end in .so (without suffix) must go in a -devel package. -NOT SURE please use clearer paths in %files MUST: In the vast majority of cases, devel packages must require the base package using a fully versioned dependency: Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release} -NOT SURE please use clearer paths in %files MUST: Packages must NOT contain any .la libtool archives, these must be removed in the spec if they are built.[20] -NOT SURE please use clearer paths in %files MUST: Packages containing GUI applications must include a %{name}.desktop file, and that file must be properly installed with desktop-file-install in the %install section. If you feel that your packaged GUI application does not need a .desktop file, you must put a comment in the spec file with your explanation. -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. -NOT SURE please use clearer paths in %files MUST: All filenames in rpm packages must be valid UTF-8. -OK SHOULD Items: Items marked as SHOULD are things that the package (or reviewer) SHOULD do, but is not required to do. SHOULD: If the source package does not include license text(s) as a separate file from upstream, the packager SHOULD query upstream to include it. SHOULD: The description and summary sections in the package spec file should contain translations for supported Non-English languages, if available. SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package builds in mock. -Does not build. SHOULD: The package should compile and build into binary rpms on all supported architectures. -Does not build. SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package functions as described. A package should not segfault instead of running, for example. SHOULD: If scriptlets are used, those scriptlets must be sane. This is vague, and left up to the reviewers judgement to determine sanity. SHOULD: Usually, subpackages other than devel should require the base package using a fully versioned dependency. SHOULD: The placement of pkgconfig(.pc) files depends on their usecase, and this is usually for development purposes, so should be placed in a -devel pkg. A reasonable exception is that the main pkg itself is a devel tool not installed in a user runtime, e.g. gcc or gdb. SHOULD: If the package has file dependencies outside of /etc, /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, or /usr/sbin consider requiring the package which provides the file instead of the file itself. SHOULD: your package should contain man pages for binaries/scripts. If it doesn't, work with upstream to add them where they make sense. References to the Fedora Packaging Guidelines -------------------- This is not a complete review, but you can start by fixing the things mentioned and I'll resume when you have posted an updates spec and src.rpm.
About the specfile itself: > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/*/*.* > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/*/*/*.* > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/*/*/*/*.* Please do not use this. It's OK to use */*/*.png for icons, but not for kde4/apps. And you need not (and in fact must not) list those files: listing a directory already automatically includes the files in it! > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/lemon > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/lemon/images > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/lemon/styles > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/lemon/styles/elegant > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/lemon/styles/simple Only the first of these lines is needed, this automatically includes all the files and subdirectories. > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/squeeze > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/squeeze/images > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/squeeze/styles > %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps/squeeze/styles/simple Likewise. You should also use %{_kde4_appsdir} instead of %{_kde4_datadir}/kde4/apps. > %{_kde4_datadir}/locale/*/*/*.mo No! As Magnus pointed out, that's what %find_lang is for. > *Sat Jan 8 2011 siddharth Sharma <siddharths> - 0.9.3-1 Space missing after the '*'. And customarily, the first letter of a person's name in Latin letters gets capitalized. About the review: > -NOT OK, please use clearer paths in %files, using */*/*/* is very difficult > to figure out. Huh? Those */*/*/*.* don't match anything outside of the _kde4_appsdir, there won't be any shared or static libs, header files etc. in there unless the upstream package is broken. (That said, it's indeed bad to use these wildcards.) And a way to figure out what files actually end up in the package is to look at the contents of the binary RPM. But of course if you can't get the SRPM to build, that won't help…
For the %find_lang, use: %find_lang lemon %find_lang squeeze cat lemon.lang squeeze.lang >%{name}.lang
Siddharth: the fedora_review flag is set by the reviewer. Magnus: since you are reviewing, set the bug status to ASSIGNED and set the fedora_review flag to ?.
Done.

References to the Fedora Packaging Guidelines Summary: fix the source url and make it build in mock ;-) no other complaints, at least not right now. Don't know why fails when rpmbuild builds it just fine
SPEC and SRPM have been re-updated with suggested changes and building with mock Spec URL: http://siddharths.fedorapeople.org/SPECS/lemonpos.spec SRPM URL: http://siddharths.fedorapeople.org/SRPMS/lemonpos-0.9.4-2.fc16.src.rpm Now this builds with mock as well
