Foreign Function Interface for Python, providing a convenient and
reliable way of calling existing C code from Python. The interface is
based on LuaJIT’s FFI.

Comment 1 Christopher Meng 2013-07-23 02:46:57 UTC
Hmm..

You should use 

 http://cffi.readthedocs.org

as URL, the current one you are using just represent 0.6 version.

I'll take this.

Comment 2 Eric Smith 2013-07-23 03:10:53 UTC
Agreed. I'll change that. Thanks for reviewing this one also!

SRPM URL: http://fedorapeople.org/~brouhaha/python-cffi/python-cffi-0.6-2.fc19.src.rpm

URL changed per request.  Source0 changed to use version macro.

Comment 5 Christopher Meng 2013-07-25 01:45:14 UTC
1. python-cffi.i686: E: non-standard-executable-perm /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/_cffi_backend.so 0775L
python3-cffi.i686: E: non-standard-executable-perm /usr/lib/python3.3/site-packages/_cffi_backend.cpython-33m.so 0775L

2. Do we need PKG-INFO as %doc?

3. Please report check failure to upstream.

4. Will you push to EL6?

If not please remove 

%{!?python_sitelib: %global python_sitelib %(%{__python} -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print (get_python_lib())")}

(optional)

Package is fine, nearly APPROVED.

Comment 6 Eric Smith 2013-07-25 02:10:34 UTC
1.  That doesn't happen when built on my system for f19 or built on Koji for rawhide.  I think there is some problem on your build machine.  This happened with the python-tinycss review also.

rawhide:  http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5653760

2.  I don't know whether anyone depends on having PKG-INFO files in Fedora RPMs of Python modules.  If not, then PKG-INFO may not be necessary, but since it is provided by 1117 other packages (as determined by "yum provides */PKG-INFO | grep ^Repo | wc -l") I don't think I should remove it.


3.  I'll mention the check failure to upstream, but it really isn't their issue since the check passes without any reported errors if I run it manually on the same build system.  It's something in how rpmbuild is setting up the environment, which isn't an upstream problem, so I don't intend to deal with it as something that needs to be tracked upstream.  Of course, if upstream is able to help with debugging it, that's great.


4.  Yes, I plan to push python-cffi to EL6.  I really want to get WeasyPrint into EL6, although it looks like that might not be possible, so it may have to wait for EL7.  However, at a minimum I want to get as many of the prerequisites into EL6 as possible.  Having python-cffi in EL6 is useful for other reasons.

Comment 7 Christopher Meng 2013-07-25 02:12:12 UTC
OK.

Seems I need to cleanup my mock environment ;)

APPROVED.
