Description Jaromír Cápík 2012-02-27 16:15:16 UTC
Spec URL: http://jcapik.fedorapeople.org/files/procps-ng/procps-ng.spec
SRPM URL: http://jcapik.fedorapeople.org/files/procps-ng/procps-ng-3.3.2-1.fc18.src.rpm
Description: 
The procps package contains a set of system utilities that provide
system information. Procps includes ps, free, skill, pkill, pgrep,
snice, tload, top, uptime, vmstat, w, watch and pdwx. The ps command
displays a snapshot of running processes. The top command provides
a repetitive update of the statuses of running processes. The free
command displays the amounts of free and used memory on your
system. The skill command sends a terminate command (or another
specified signal) to a specified set of processes. The snice
command is used to change the scheduling priority of specified
processes. The tload command prints a graph of the current system
load average to a specified tty. The uptime command displays the
current time, how long the system has been running, how many users
are logged on, and system load averages for the past one, five,
and fifteen minutes. The w command displays a list of the users
who are currently logged on and what they are running. The watch
program watches a running program. The vmstat command displays
virtual memory statistics about processes, memory, paging, block
I/O, traps, and CPU activity. The pwdx command reports the current 
working directory of a process or processes.

Comment 1 Jaromír Cápík 2012-02-27 16:52:52 UTC
This is a re-review request for a package rename/replace.
This package replaces the former 'procps' package.

[x]: MUST Sources used to build the package match the upstream source, as
     provided in the spec URL.

     include it.
[x]: SHOULD Dist tag is present.
[x]: SHOULD No file requires outside of /etc, /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin,
     /usr/sbin.
[x]: SHOULD Final provides and requires are sane (rpm -q --provides and rpm -q
     --requires).
[?]: SHOULD Package functions as described.
[x]: SHOULD Latest version is packaged.
[x]: SHOULD Package does not include license text files separate from
     upstream.

     justified.

     files.
[x]: SHOULD Spec use %global instead of %define.

Issues:
FIX: Correct the base package dependency in your devel subpackage to %{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release}
FIX: The license of some files is unclear to me, specifically:
 - tload.c (no license, copyright only)
 - uptime.c (no license, no copyright)
 - vmstat.c (no license, copyright only)
 - watch.c (no license, copyright only)
 - w.c (no license, copyright only)
 - ps/stacktrace.c (no license, copyright only)
Additionally, proc/whattime.c is explicitly said to be public domain.
Resolve those with upstream.  You could also mention Public domain and Copyright only in your License tag, I suppose -- that would leave just uptime.c to deal with.  I also suggest consulting the Fedora legal list.
NOTE: Since the base package will always be installed, you don't have to package all the docs again in the devel subpackage.
TODO: Resolve the rpmlint warnings, if possible.
NOTE: There seems to be testsuite.  Could it be utilized?
NOTE: Is there a reason to exclude libprocps.pc?

Not approving yet.

Hopefully fixed ...

SPEC: http://jcapik.fedorapeople.org/files/procps-ng/2/procps-ng.spec
SRPM: http://jcapik.fedorapeople.org/files/procps-ng/2/procps-ng-3.3.2-2.fc18.src.rpm

Note: rpmlint warnings have already been solved by upstream (master)

OK.

> FIX: The license of some files is unclear to me, specifically:
>  - tload.c (no license, copyright only)
>  - uptime.c (no license, no copyright)
>  - vmstat.c (no license, copyright only)

>  - ps/stacktrace.c (no license, copyright only)

LGPL2+, OK.

> Additionally, proc/whattime.c is explicitly said to be public domain.

Public domain and LGPL2+ -- does this mean it was relicensed or only the modifications are under LGPL2+?  In case of the latter, add 'Public domain' to your License tag before building the package unless you wish to relicense it in Fedora.

> Resolve those with upstream.  You could also mention Public domain and

Sort of OK.  You don't have to install the licenses either.

> TODO: Resolve the rpmlint warnings, if possible.
> NOTE: There seems to be testsuite.  Could it be utilized?

Possibly in the future...  OK.

> NOTE: Is there a reason to exclude libprocps.pc?

Added, OK.
