Comment 1 Jiri Popelka 2011-04-19 15:23:25 UTC
[OK] MUST: rpmlint must be run on the source rpm and all binary rpms the build produces.
[OK] 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] MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual license.
[OK] 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.
[OK] 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.
[OK] MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires.
[NA] MUST: The spec file MUST handle locales properly. This is done by using the %find_lang macro. Using %{_datadir}/locale/* is strictly forbidden.
[OK] 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.
[OK] MUST: Packages must NOT bundle copies of system libraries.
[NA] 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.
[OK] MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates.
[OK] MUST: A Fedora package must not list a file more than once in the spec file's %files listings.
[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.
[NA] MUST: Large documentation files must go in a -doc subpackage.
[OK] MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the runtime of the application.
[OK] MUST: Header files must be in a -devel package.
[NA] MUST: Static libraries must be in a -static package.
[OK] 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.
[OK] MUST: In the vast majority of cases, devel packages must require the base package using a fully versioned dependency: Requires: %{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release}
[OK] MUST: Packages must NOT contain any .la libtool archives, these must be removed in the spec if they are built.
[NA] MUST: Packages containing GUI applications must include a %{name}.desktop file.
[OK] MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by other packages.
[OK] MUST: All filenames in rpm packages must be valid UTF-8.

[NA] 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.
[NA] SHOULD: The description and summary sections in the package spec file should contain translations for supported Non-English languages, if available.
[OK] SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package builds in mock.
[OK] SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package functions as described. A package should not segfault instead of running, for example.
[NA] SHOULD: If scriptlets are used, those scriptlets must be sane. This is vague, and left up to the reviewers judgement to determine sanity.
[NA] SHOULD: Usually, subpackages other than devel should require the base package using a fully versioned dependency.
[OK] 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.
[NA] 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.
[NO] SHOULD: your package should contain man pages for binaries/scripts. If it doesn't, work with upstream to add them where they make sense.

Comment 2 Jiri Popelka 2011-04-19 15:25:42 UTC
Only problem is that there are no man pages for binaries but that is a SHOULD so I consider this package APPROVED.
