Spec URL: http://linville.fedorapeople.org/batctl.spec SRPM URL: http://linville.fedorapeople.org/batctl-2011.1.0-1.fc14.src.rpm Description: batctl offers a convenient way to configure the batman-adv kernel module as well as displaying debug information such as originator tables, translation tables and the debug log. In combination with a bat-hosts file batctl allows the use of host names instead of MAC addresses. B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced operates on layer 2. Thus all hosts participating in the virtual switched network are transparently connected together for all protocols above layer 2. Therefore the common diagnosis tools do not work as expected. To overcome these problems batctl contains the commands ping, traceroute, tcpdump which provide similar functionality to the normal ping(1), traceroute(1), tcpdump(1) commands, but modified to layer 2 behaviour or using the B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced protocol.

Package scratch built in Koji here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3092500
Emil could you give this package a try to make sure it is working for you?
Works perfectly. I am currently surfing over batman-adv which was configured using batctl. Thanks
Hi, can you update the package to the latest release so we can start the review ? Also, : - Buildroot should be removed, as this is no longer needed - %doc should include the license ( and so you should ask upstream to ship the license ) - rm -rf %{buildroot} in beggining of %install, %defattr and %clean are uneeded for latest fedora and more important, it seems the module is not compiled in fedora 16 kernel :/ ( not blocking for review, but annoying for testing and usage, so I would suggest asking to have it enabled ).
Ping ?
Sorry, I wasn't motivated to hurry afer so long a wait... Spec URL: http://fedorapeople.org/~linville/batctl.spec SRPM URL: http://fedorapeople.org/~linville/batctl-2012.2.0-1.fc17.src.rpm I removed the references to buildroot, defattr, and clean. Please cite the requirement to include the license in %doc. Each of the source files (even the Makefile!) contains license information already. I'll take care of enabling the kernel option once this package is approved. If you need test kernels built, then let me know.
Yup, that's how I understand that : https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines#License_Text
Thanks for the reference. It seems rather clear that since the source package does not include a license file, then including the non-existant file in %doc is not required. I'll send a note to the upstream folks to see about changing that in the future.

you need to set the fedora-cvs flag to ? since I approved the package ( or perhaps you are in holiday, I do not know )
