Spec URL: https://raw.github.com/hroncok/SPECS/master/perl-Lingua-EN-Numbers.spec SRPM URL: https://github.com/downloads/hroncok/SPECS/perl-Lingua-EN-Numbers-1.04-2.fc17.src.rpm Description: Lingua::EN::Numbers turns numbers into English text. It exports (upon request) two functions, num2en and num2en_ordinal. Each takes a scalar value and returns a scalar value. The return value is the English text expressing that number; or if what you provided wasn't a number, then they return undefined. Fedora Account System Username: churchyard
There is no license found in the tarball, nor any indication this is under GPL v2, could you clarify that with upstream ?
Another issue is that you have added %defattr, while this is not needed, and we try to have clean spec right from the start, could you just remove it ? Once theses 2 issues ( licensing, %defattr ) are fixed I will approve the package.

Thanks for the review, %defattr somehow passed my review after cpanspec generated the file, I'll drop it.

Ok, O I guess that you should just need to upstream to ship the license ( IIRC, that's a GPL requirement ), but that's not blocking. So the package is approved.
I'll do that. Yes, it is a GPL requirement.
(In reply to comment #4) > Ok, O I guess that you should just need to upstream to ship the license ( > IIRC, that's a GPL requirement ) It is not. GPLv2 says, it's a "should": "You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software ..." That said, not shipping the GPL is pretty common in perl-dists, because perl-dist authors often take knowing the GPL for granted. It's nothing I would bother upstreams with, but this is just my personal preference. More important than this, is this: .. =head1 LEGACY INTERFACE B<Note:> this legacy interface is now deprecated, and will be dropped in a future release. Please let me (Neil) know if you're using this interface, and I'll do something to continue supporting you. ... I.e. if there shouldn't be any other _actively maintained_ package (not one from a computer museum), I'd recommend Fedora not to ship this perl-dist.

Well, I packaged this as a dependency of Slic3r. And I really want that in Fedora.
