Description: 
FourTerm is ultra-lightweight terminal emulator with vim-like keyboard shortcuts
for window navigation, active web and file links, search feature and sexy color
"Solarized" scheme with day/night fast switching. It is based on ValaTerm and

Hi Lukáš,

I tried to build your package with rawhide x86_64 mock environment and it failed. When you get that fixed I'll do a formal review.

Comment 3 Lukas Zapletal 2012-07-15 11:49:13 UTC
Ah I can see it too: http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/1534/4241534/build.log

Looks like Rawhide issue, will investigate and poke you. Thanks!

Comment 4 Lukas Zapletal 2012-07-15 19:52:04 UTC
Matt, thanks for your report. Now this is fixed - rawhide (maybe F17 too) use different builder tool (waf) which slightly changed some options for vala. I fixed this.

Please note version was changed upstream - I bumped version number thus.

I guess libgee and glib2 should be removed (?) from "Requires" section?

I can write the man page if needed, not sure if this is needed for program that does no support any option.

I can remove the install file.

I don't know if the empty debuginfo is an issue.

Thanks for help.

=== Issues ===
1. Like you mention, the Requires for libgee and glib2 are not necessary. Please remove them.

2. Debuginfo packages cannot be generated for Vala code. Please disable the debug package with "%global debug_package %{nil}"

3. Remove commented out lines in spec file to get rid of rpmlint warnings.

4. Change the Group in spec file to something that makes more sense. I suggest "User Interface/Desktop", which is what gnome-terminal package uses.

5. The Source URL for upstream tarball does not exist. Can't verify that upstream matches tarball in the srpm. Please fix the URL to point to the upstream tarball.

=== Final Notes ===
1. Man pages are not needed. They don't make sense for this package.

Comment 6 Lukas Zapletal 2012-07-19 21:32:55 UTC
Corrected all five issues. Plus I have brand new release.sh script that prevents from forgetting to upload the tarball :-)
