Description Ville Skyttä 2013-08-06 13:00:46 UTC
tetex-elsevier was identified as a package possibly needing maintainer attention
due to the F-20 unversioned doc dir change. The identification is not
foolproof, it is basically this grep:

    grep -E "(/doc|_docdir|_defaultdocdir).+version" *.spec

Please review your package and make the appropriate changes, if any. A
good starting point is checking the lines output by the above grep for
your specfile. For the vast majority of packages, after the changes,
the expected outcome is that documentation dirs in /usr/share/doc
should no longer contain the package version.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2013-09-16 16:16:10 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 20 development cycle.
Changing version to '20'.

Comment 2 Ville Skyttä 2013-11-03 19:39:38 UTC
I've fixed this in Rawhide, leaving F-20 up to maintainers.

As said, *F-20*. This update is completely unnecessary for F-18 and F-19 users, please don't make them download and install updates that change nothing, delete the F-18 and F-19 Bodhi updates you did instead.

Comment 7 Michael J Gruber 2013-11-05 10:27:53 UTC
F18 and F19 (also) need a bugfix for the texlive install tree, and the point of pushing the current update is having the same spec to build upon.

I'd much rather use git the way it is intended to (using branches properly), but the way we're currently doing it in Fedora means we prefer spec magic (relver dependend macros) over meaningful branches. Or the nightmare of cherry-picks you see in some packages' git tree.

Or do you suggest skipping -10 and jumping from -9 to -11 for f18 and f19?

F18 and F19 already have 0.1.20090917-8 which according to the changelog already contains the install tree fix.

> and the point of pushing the current update is having the same spec

No, pushing the package update is pointless for that. Feel free to have the same spec in sync between branches *in git* if you like, but there's no need to push the package to end users through the updates system just for this change.

(Actually I'd also recommend not syncing git branches prematurely before a real sync actually happens to avoid confusion when others look into your stuff in git vs the package repos.)

That fix needs a fix.

OK, I revoked the updates for F18 and F19.

I guess pkgs.fedoraproject.org should not (but can easily) be mistaken to be a repo for packaging - when it is the buildsys/bodhi batch queue ;)
