Spec URL: http://rmattes.fedorapeople.org/RPMS/flexiport/flexiport.spec SRPM URL: http://rmattes.fedorapeople.org/RPMS/flexiport/flexiport-2.0.0-1.20111231git.fc17.x86_64.rpm Description: Flexiport provides a consistent interface for communicating over a range of data port types. Currently serial (including serial-over-USB), TCP and UDP ports are supported. Logging is supported which allows communications sessions to be played back at a later date without the original hardware present. Fedora Account System Username: rmattes rpmlint: $ rpmlint flexiport.spec ../RPMS/x86_64/flexiport-* flexiport.spec: W: invalid-url Source0: flexiport-2.0.0.tar.bz2 3 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 1 warnings. This is OK, the tarball is a git snapshot, and instructions for duplicating it are in the spec file comments. Flexiport is currently included in the "gearbox" package, but the latest upstream release of gearbox made a shift from GPL to the Eclipse public license. The copyright holder of flexiport re-licensed the flexiport library separately under the LGPL and is hosting it separately on github. The GPL licensed Player package can't be distributed when built against an Eclipse licensed gearbox, but it can when built against the LGPL-licensed flexiport. Once this package is accepted, I will upgrade gearbox to the latest upstream eclipse licensed release(10.04), make the flexiport package conflict with earlier versions (<= 9.11), and submit flexiport to the stable repos.

Whoops! Sorry about that. SRPM is at http://rmattes.fedorapeople.org/RPMS/flexiport/flexiport-2.0.0-1.20111231git.fc17.src.rpm
This SRPM fails to build. Looks like it needs BuildRequires: cmake BuildRequires: doxygen BuildRequires: graphviz You can try building your SRPM with mock (or a scratch build in Koji) to catch these problems. A couple of other issues which also need fixing... Your instructions for building the source tarball aren't quite right. Presumably you meant something like this: # git clone git://github.com/gbiggs/flexiport.git ; cd flexiport # git archive 1b6103daa | bzip2 >flexiport-2.0.0.tar.bz2 which worked for me and produced a tarball matching the one you have. I'd strongly recommend you use GitHub's tarball generation feature instead, since it gives a usable source URL. See here: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2012-April/166267.html You should also add %{?_isa} to the Requires for the -devel subpackage to make it arch-specific: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Requiring_Base_Package Please send your gcc47.patch upstream and add a link to the upstream report in the .spec. I would also suggest adding a comment above this line explaining its reason: sed -i 's/extensions/#extensions/' doc/conf.py.in
Thanks for having a look. I've fixed the issues you pointed out, and submitted the gcc-4.7 patch upstream.
