Description:
The cura-storage package contains CMPI providers for management of storage using Common Information Managemen (CIM) protocol.

The providers can be registered in any CMPI-aware CIMOM, both OpenPegasus and SFCB were tested.

taking review

Comment 2 Jon Stanley 2012-08-02 01:37:19 UTC
In general a very simple spec that looks good, but seems somewhat weird. I guess I should ask what the intended use of this package is, because it looks like it uses storage stuff from pyanaconda, which would be a....strange way to get info, unless you are planning to be used *only* in the install path, but it seems that this module is more generally useful (and perhaps non-useful entirely in the install path).

Moreover, I'm not sure that anaconda guarantees a stable API - so this could break without warning because of internal changes in Anaconda.

But for a review:

source filesmatch upstream:

$ sha256sum cura-storage-0.1.tar.gz ../cura-storage-0.1.tar.gz 
35ece7f998f37f1299c8c2cf02de4e31365fc2ee92cadf79e949308efdc10156  cura-storage-0.1.tar.gz
35ece7f998f37f1299c8c2cf02de4e31365fc2ee92cadf79e949308efdc10156  ../cura-storage-0.1.tar.gz
:

yes - package meets naming and versioning guidelines.
notes = specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently.

Unless this is planned to be used on RHEL5, the top two macros are not necessary, See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Python#Macros

yes - dist tag is present.

yes - license field matches the actual license.
yes - license is open source-compatible.
yes - license text included in package.
yes - latest version is being packaged.
yes - BuildRequires are proper.
warning - compiler flags are appropriate.
- the CFLAGS to setup.py isn't necessary since this is a noarch package.
note - %clean is present.
- See above. If this package is intended for RHEL5, then a %clean section is needed. If not, no problem and drop the python %defines's
yes - package builds in mock.
yes - package installs properly.
rpmlint is silent.
final provides and requires are sane:
$ rpm -q --requires -p ~/Downloads/cura-storage-0.1-1.fc17.noarch.rpm 
anaconda  
cmpi-bindings-pywbem  
python(abi) = 2.7
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1
rpmlib(PartialHardlinkSets) <= 4.0.4-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
sblim-cmpi-base  
rpmlib(PayloadIsXz) <= 5.2-1
$ rpm -q --provides -p ~/Downloads/cura-storage-0.1-1.fc17.noarch.rpm 
cura-storage = 0.1-1.fc17

yes - owns the directories it creates.
yes - doesn't own any directories it shouldn't.
yes - no duplicates in %files.
yes - file permissions are appropriate.
yes - no scriptlets present.
yes - code, not content.
yes - documentation is small, so no -docs subpackage is necessary.
yes - %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package.

Comment 3 Jon Stanley 2012-08-02 01:48:02 UTC
Also, thinking about my comments above about the Anaconda API, this won't even work on RHEL5 since the Anaconda storage stuff was completely rewritten, so all the stuff that I said about RHEL5 can be gotten rid of (the python defines and no %clean section is needed).

My comments about the Anaconda API being unstable remain, and are illustrated by that :).

Comment 4 Jan Safranek 2012-08-02 06:58:22 UTC
I have indeed no intention to run this package on RHEL5, so I removed python_sitelib and python_sitearch and CFLAGS as suggested.

Regarding Anaconda stability, I'm working with Anaconda guys to stabilize it, as it has quite nice python module to manage storage. Of course, there is lot of work to do to release separate Anaconda-storage package that would be usable outside installer, but is tracked as bug #816836.

Whole cura-storage is highly experimental.

Updated packages:
Spec URL: http://people.redhat.com/jsafrane/cura-storage/cura-storage.spec
SRPM URL: http://people.redhat.com/jsafrane/cura-storage/cura-storage-0.1-2.fc17.src.rpm

Comment 5 Jan Safranek 2012-08-03 06:45:30 UTC
Jon, can we proceed with the review? I want the package in Fedora before Alpha freeze. Thanks in advance.

Comment 6 Tomas Smetana 2012-08-06 15:09:50 UTC
Hello, I'm really sorry, but we need to proceed with the review.

Thank you Jon for your help. I will now try to finish the review.

Regards.
