%description
mate-corba is a high-performance CORBA (Common Object Request Broker
Architecture) ORB (object request broker). It allows programs to
send requests and receive replies from other programs, regardless
of the locations of the two programs. CORBA is an architecture that
enables communication between program objects, regardless of the
programming language they're written in or the operating system they
run on.

You will need to install this package and mate-corba-devel if you want to
write programs that use CORBA technology.

I'm not shure if we really need this patch, but this package working well for 7 month on my repo.

IHMO it's not necessary to invent the wheel new ;)

Comment 2 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-19 15:43:47 UTC
Opps,
removing *.la files is a bad idea because for building mate-desktop we need them.

remove those lines:

rm -f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libdir}/*.la
rm -f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libdir}/matecorba-2.0/*.*a

Comment 3 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-19 15:45:37 UTC
and add those lines to files.

%{_libdir}/libMateCORBA-2.la
%{_libdir}/libMateCORBA-imodule-2.la
%{_libdir}/libMateCORBACosNaming-2.la
%{_libdir}/matecorba-2.0/Everything_module.la

Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2012-07-19 17:11:29 UTC
Those .la files shouldn't be required, if stuff breaks without it, then we can patch it to add additional (and imo proper) linkage.

Comment 5 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-19 17:35:08 UTC
Ok, for better understanding.
You mean i've to patch mate-desktop package to build without those *.la files?

Comment 6 Rex Dieter 2012-07-19 18:59:30 UTC
Probably, but it depends on the particular build failures, on how best to fix it.

Comment 7 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-19 20:51:13 UTC
I try to find out what calls /usr/lib64/libMateCORBA-2.la

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -DMATELOCALEDIR=\""/usr/share/locale\"" -DPNP_IDS=\""/usr/share/hwdata/pnp.ids"\"    -pthread -DMATECORBA2=1 -I/usr/include/gdk-pixbuf-2.0 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib64/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/lib64/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/mateconf/2 -I/usr/include/matecorba-2.0 -I/usr/include/startup-notification-1.0      -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4  -m64 -mtune=generic -c test-ditem.c

in mate-desktop for several hours......
But this is not the theme here.

Comment 8 Dan Mashal 2012-07-19 20:53:27 UTC
Please,

Use the spec in the first comment to build. 

It works.

I don't understand what the confusion is about?

Thanks,
Dan

Comment 9 Rex Dieter 2012-07-19 23:11:11 UTC
Agreed, let's not go inventing problems that don't exist with the package(s) as submitted.

Comment 10 Rex Dieter 2012-07-19 23:49:52 UTC
1. MUST: create -devel pkg to own development files, similar to comment #1 's version, including the hack to avoid the multilib conflicts

2. MUST: missing scriptlets for shared libraries.

3. MUST: omit extraneous lib runtime dependencies, like
Requires:	mate-common gobject-introspection libIDL gtk-doc
esp mate-common, which is only something needed at *build* time.

Um... I think you may want to start with something closer to the .spec in comment #1 come to think of it. :-/  except for the "not omitting libtool archives" part.

Comment 11 Dan Mashal 2012-07-20 05:10:03 UTC
Thanks Rex.

Comment 13 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-22 13:29:05 UTC
We need a -devel package !!!

Comment 14 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-22 13:32:40 UTC
You don't need mate-common only as BuildRequires not as Requires.

Comment 15 Dan Mashal 2012-07-22 17:52:52 UTC
I know we need a devel package. I'll create one.

Comment 16 Michael S. 2012-07-22 22:21:14 UTC
I think rpmlint should have complained on the license, ie, without "and".

Guidelines say to use "or" if that a dual license, or "and" if that's multiple license :

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines#Dual_Licensing_Scenarios

Comment 17 Dan Mashal 2012-07-22 22:26:58 UTC
That is correct Michael, I just finished updating the spec file.

SPEC file:
http://vicodan.fedorapeople.org/matespec/mate-corba.spec

$ rpmlint mate-corba-1.4.0-6.fc17.src.rpm 
1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings.

Comment 18 Michael S. 2012-07-22 22:38:03 UTC
Also, I see the package own directories that doesn't belong to him :

/usr/share/gtk-doc/html
/usr/lib/pkgconfig
/usr/share/aclocal
/usr/share/idl

And the whole debug directory is in the main rpm too :
/usr/lib/debug

That's because there is a too wide joker used in %files

Comment 19 Michael S. 2012-07-22 22:39:16 UTC
Mhh seems to have been corrected in the last version, didn't see sooner, disregard last comment.

Comment 20 Dan Mashal 2012-07-22 22:49:00 UTC
Yes, sorry, 

Been working on that and the other review at the same time. 

Please let me know of any other issues you see.

Thank you.

Comment 24 Rex Dieter 2012-07-25 03:33:21 UTC
OK, now that the %files list is clearer,

4. MUST omit static libraries and libtool archives, ie, items that match
%{_libdir}/lib*.a
%{_libdir}/lib*.la
(or provide justification why they warrant an exception)

5. SHOULD own includedir subdirectories.  One easy way to do that, is to just include:
%{_includedir}/matecorba-2.0/
which will include it, and recursively everything under it

6. SHOULD.  this
%{_bindir}/matecorba-linc-cleanup-sockets
looks like something that ought to be in the main runtime pkg instead of -devel

7. -devel MUST have an arch'd dependency on the main pkg, use this instead:
Requires: %{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release}

8.  MUST drop
Requires: mate-common
this is a BuildRequires only, not required for normal runtime use.

Comment 28 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-25 04:55:28 UTC
before i go to bed
BuildRequires: autoconf automake
you can remove, mock builds without it
BuildRequires: libtool you can remove if mate-common-1.4.0-6 is in stable

Comment 29 Rex Dieter 2012-07-25 19:45:50 UTC
OK, latest -8 at

Comment 37 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-27 12:13:37 UTC
mate-corba-1.4.0-8 is ok, except the unnecessary Build requires.
see comment 28.
They are called as Requires from mate-common-1.4.0-6
No need to call them double.
Anyway, i will give karma !


@mate-corba-1.4.0-9
see comment 2 -7
rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_libdir}/libMateCORBA-2.la
rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_libdir}/libMateCORBA-imodule-2.la
rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_libdir}/libMateCORBACosNaming-2.la
rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_libdir}/matecorba-2.0/Everything_module.la

This will prevent you from building the mate-desktop package.

If you show me a way to build mate-desktop with mate-corba-1.4.0-9, i give you karma ;)

Comment 38 Rex Dieter 2012-07-27 12:17:27 UTC
we've already discussed the libtool archives thing.  It should build fine, and if it doesn't, it's simply a bug we can fix.  the "fix" is *not* to put the .la files back.

agree, i will give karma.
hope we find a fix for building other packages.

Comment 40 Kevin Fenzi 2012-07-27 15:02:01 UTC
Hey dan, could I ask again that you not push each of these packages as updates as they are approved, but wait until the stack is ready? 

People using mate 1.2 from 3rd party repos will get your updated 1.4 packages as they go out and it could mess up their desktops. If you do one big update at the end with all the parts of 1.4 they can just simply be updated to 1.4 and be happy.

Comment 41 Dan Mashal 2012-07-27 15:04:09 UTC
Hey Kevin,

I thought we fixed that with mate-doc-utils and using an obsolete field.

Which one is conflicting now? Maybe I need to obsolete each package or figure some other way around preventing. I'll find you on IRC in an hour or two.

Comment 42 Kevin Fenzi 2012-07-27 15:20:00 UTC
well, it's not (just) conflicts or obsoletes... it's versions too. 

Looking more closely: 

The mate-desktop page refers to: 
http://mate-desktop.org/install/#fedora

yum install http://dl.dropbox.com/u/49862637/Mate-desktop/mate-desktop-fedora/releases/16/noarch/mate-desktop-release-16-5.fc16.noarch.rpm

So, it looks like it's just f16 as far as I can see. 

So, folks using this on f16 have installed a mate-1.2 setup. 

When you push out mate-corba-1.4.x it updates their mate-corba-1.2.2-1.fc16

Does the desktop continue to work with just parts of it 1.2 and other parts of it 1.4? 
I'm not sure, but it seems a dangerous combo to me. 

I don't know if there is a f17 repo anywhere, it could be that just not pushing to f16 would solve the issue.

Comment 43 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-27 15:36:29 UTC
No Prob Kevin,
Mate-Desktop 1.4.x is released today.
I've upload all packages for fc16/fc17 5 min ago.
Do a 'yum clean all' for getting them yet.
At the moment all aproved packages don't have any conflicts with my repo packages.
My version no. are smaller then the aproved packages.

Comment 44 Dan Mashal 2012-07-27 23:46:22 UTC
I will remove the fc17 and fc16 packages from updates-testing repo as per discussion with Kevin on IRC earlier today..

Comment 45 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2012-07-28 01:07:34 UTC
@ kevin Fenci
there is a little confusion for the information of my repo.
see http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/download for current install instructions.
I provide packages for fc16 and fc17
as i said in comment 42
I update both to 1.4.x today.
The reason for that was that MATE wants to release at the same time for all distros.
From my side we can also update fc17 step by step from fedora.
Fc16 makes no sense because it has there EOL in 3-4 month.

Pls see my complete spec list at http://raveit65.fedorapeople.org/Mate-Desktop/fc16/SPECS/
This include all my packages in my repo.
And i provide compiz-0.88 for Mate.
I'm talking about up to 70-80 main packages which is the complete Mate-Desktop.

What Dan and me want to do for fc18 is a very minimalistic version in fedora.
In my opinion we need my repo for extra packages for fc18.
Otherwise users of mate-fedora will be sad.
