Description Jordan Russell 2011-05-29 04:41:24 UTC
The dependency on "webserver" seems to be unnecessary. Could it be removed?

As mentioned in ViewVC's INSTALL file, ViewVC comes with its own built-in server (standalone.py), so there is no strict requirement that a separate web server be installed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.1.11-1.fc14

Comment 1 Jordan Russell 2011-05-29 05:07:43 UTC
BTW, I notice the main %files section has this line:

%attr(0700,apache,apache) %{_localstatedir}/spool/viewvc

Not sure what that directory is used for, but shouldn't references to "apache" be confined to the httpd subpackage?

Comment 2 Bojan Smojver 2011-05-29 06:13:30 UTC
Yeah, I think you're right on both counts here. Hangover from early packages and 1.0 days, I guess...

I won't be near my computer for a while though.
