Hi, can you update the spec file for the latest release ( and the tarball for the version 1.6.X are missing ) ? also, a few note : - for a fedora rpm, BuildRoot is no longer needed, same goes for %defattr, and %clean, and cleaning of %install - you should use %global, not %define for %rhnroot http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#.25global_preferred_over_.25define - you should consider using packages rather than filedesps, for reasons listed in the guideline : http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#File_Dependencies - you should also ( IMHO ) place requires on 1 line each, as it permit to have easier to read diff when sending patch - the file spacewalk-service look like a init script, and recent fedora use systemd, so the file should be converted http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Systemd
Also, there is no file to give the license of the tarball, and you should ask upstream to add one : http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines#License_Text
Updated: http://miroslav.suchy.cz/fedora/spacewalk-admin/spacewalk-admin-1.8.1-1.fc16.src.rpm http://miroslav.suchy.cz/fedora/spacewalk-admin/spacewalk-admin.spec Please note that I'm member of upstream. Therefore I created new release (as I put those changes directly to upstream) and not put it in spec as patch. > - for a fedora rpm, BuildRoot is no longer needed, same goes for %defattr, and %clean, and cleaning of %install We build the package for EPEL and mainly EPEL5 as well. And there there it is needed. It is easier to maintain the spec file when we can leave it there (and it makes no harm of Fedora). But if you insinst on that I can make separate spec for Fedora and for EPEL. > you should consider using packages rather than filedesps fixed > you should use %global, not %define for %rhnroot fixed > you should also ( IMHO ) place requires on 1 line each, as it permit to have easier to read diff when sending patch That is only two perl packages. Somebody in past decided that it would be nice to have perl packages together. I do not think it is necessary, but if you see it as blocker, I can change it. > the file spacewalk-service look like a init script, and recent fedora use > systemd, so the file should be converted > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Systemd It looks like init script, but it is not. Spacewalk server is layered application and is build on top of several services (jabberd, httpd, tomcat6, osad-dispatcher, postgresql...). And since usually Spacewalk server is run on dedicated machine and these services are run just because Spacewalk server - if sysadmin want to restart Spacewalk, he would have to write: service tomcat6 stop service httpd stop ... service httpd start service tomcat6 start which means: he has to enumerate all services which Spacewalk requires, not forget single one and do it in correct order. To make it easy for sysadmin, we provide spacewalk-service script, which can do that. But it does *not* start those service during boot. And neither stop those services during shutdown. Each of those services still has its own initd/systemd script.
I forgot that in previous comment: > Also, there is no file to give the license of the tarball Fixed as well.
No, neither buildroot or package on the same line are blocking. I will start the formal review soon.
The directory /var/lib/rhn is already owned by spacewalk-config, but according to the policy, the current way is ok ( unless spacewalk-config end somehow in the dependency chain of spacewalk-admin, but it doesn't seems to be the case, i am just mentioning to be complete ). So that's ok, according to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#File_and_Directory_Ownership However, it seems that the package requires sudo, and nothing use it in the script, is this correct ? The same goes for restorecon, I didn't found where it is needed in the current tarball.
You are correct. Usage of restorecon in this package has been removed year ago. And sudo even earlier. I will remove those requires completely.

See: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#rpmlint [!]: MUST Changelog in prescribed format. It seems the changelog do not have the email, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Changelogs The rpmlint are just false positives ( you can add manpages later if you have time, but that's not blocking ). However, the lack of email in changelog is blocking :/ That's the last thing to fix and I can validate the package.
Changelog entries fixed. Man pages added. Updated: http://miroslav.suchy.cz/fedora/spacewalk-admin/spacewalk-admin-1.8.3-1.fc16.src.rpm http://miroslav.suchy.cz/fedora/spacewalk-admin/spacewalk-admin.spec
[x]: MUST Changelog in prescribed format. So the package is good to go.
