Description Gerard Ryan 2012-07-05 02:24:30 UTC
Spec URL: http://galileo.fedorapeople.org/eclipse-jbosstools/3.3.0/eclipse-jbosstools.spec
SRPM URL: http://galileo.fedorapeople.org/eclipse-jbosstools/3.3.0/eclipse-jbosstools-3.3.0-0.1.Final.fc17.src.rpm
Description: A set of Eclipse plugins that supports JBoss and related technology
Fedora Account System Username: galileo


There are a number of things that I'm not fully sure about, comments/advice welcome:

1. The package name. I'm not sure if the 'eclipse-' prefix is for all eclipse plugin packages (such as this), or just plugin packages from eclipse.org.

2. Packaging with maven. There are so many pom.xml files, what's the procedure for deciding which ones get installed? I've a feeling that I've done it in a haphazard sort of way here.

3. The package layout. I don't know if the layout/structure of the rpms is optimal. The reasoning behind the current structure is that if someone does 'yum install eclipse-jbosstools', then they want all of them. There isn't an eclipse-jbosstools rpm though, it just requires all the other subpackages. I'm not sure if that makes sense.

4. The source archive. I've removed the components that aren't being built from the source .tar.xz file. It's big enough without them, but when they're included it's absolutely huge. It would take a long time to extract each time it's being built (it would also take me quite a while to upload). If this is wrong I'll change it of course.

Comment 1 Gerard Ryan 2012-07-28 19:33:00 UTC
Spec URL: http://galileo.fedorapeople.org/eclipse-jbosstools/3.3.1-0.1/eclipse-jbosstools.spec
SRPM URL: http://galileo.fedorapeople.org/eclipse-jbosstools/3.3.1-0.1/eclipse-jbosstools-3.3.1-0.1.fc17.src.rpm

The current tarball included in this is cut down to include only the modules that are being built. I've removed the rest to bring the size down from over 400MB to ~77MB, as the connection I'm on these few days is quite poor (it still takes me around an hour to upload the current SRPM!

I've done a scratch build here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4338781

Comment 2 Gerard Ryan 2012-07-30 03:18:59 UTC
Spec URL: http://galileo.fedorapeople.org/eclipse-jbosstools/3.3.1-1/eclipse-jbosstools.spec
SRPM URL: http://galileo.fedorapeople.org/eclipse-jbosstools/3.3.1-1/eclipse-jbosstools-3.3.1-1.fc17.src.rpm

There was one bundle that wasn't being installed. Also fixed release tag.

Comment 3 Marek Goldmann 2012-08-01 08:37:16 UTC
I'm taking this for review.

== Issues ==
1. I've scanned the code and couldn't find any files under Mozilla's license. I suspect the License tag should look as follows: "EPL and LGPLv2+ and ASL 2.0". Please note the change of version of ASL.
2. Please include license files in the resulting RPM for following licenses: EPL, ASL 2.0 as per new guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines#License_Text
3. Decide if you want to use %{buildroot} or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT in your spec file and change
4. No javadocs?
5. Explain why are you skipping the tests when executing mvn-rpmbuild

== Notes ==

1. Update the information how to obtains the source code and create tarball.
2. jboss-as package is a required dependency?
3. Please use spaces in spec file, see rpmlint output.
4. Remove all *.jar files at the time of creating the tarball. This will decrease the size and we'll not ship binaries. For info how to do this, take a look at this: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=hornetq.git;a=blob;f=hornetq.spec;h=a43ca10aaac7606e3cb32da3819f1feee8e47120;hb=HEAD#l9

Comment 5 Gerard Ryan 2012-08-01 16:19:47 UTC
Thanks for the review

== Issues ==
1. I've scanned the code and couldn't find any files under Mozilla's license. I suspect the License tag should look as follows: "EPL and LGPLv2+ and ASL 2.0". Please note the change of version of ASL.
DONE.

2. Please include license files in the resulting RPM for following licenses: EPL, ASL 2.0 as per new guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines#License_Text
DONE

3. Decide if you want to use %{buildroot} or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT in your spec file and change
DONE

4. No javadocs?
No. Javadocs don't generally seem to be generated for eclipse packages.

5. Explain why are you skipping the tests when executing mvn-rpmbuild
DONE (it's because of missing dependency swtbot)

== Notes ==

1. Update the information how to obtains the source code and create tarball.
DONE.

2. jboss-as package is a required dependency?
Apparently so, see http://www.fpaste.org/ojfk/
One of the jars seems to require several classes that are only provided by jboss-as.
Also necessary for linking to jars that are bundled upstream: jboss-as-controller-client.jar and jboss-as-protocol.jar

3. Please use spaces in spec file, see rpmlint output.
DONE.

4. Remove all *.jar files at the time of creating the tarball. This will decrease the size and we'll not ship binaries.
DONE.

Comment 6 Marek Goldmann 2012-08-02 10:27:56 UTC
There is only one thing you forgot, please add the Apache license to the packages too. You can do this at the import time.

Otherwise looks good now, APPROVED.

Thanks!

Regarding the Apache license, It's added to eclipse-jbosstools-usage, and I believe all other subpackages that have Apache licensed stuff require this, so I don't think it's necessary to put it into all.
