Comment 1 Ralf Corsepius 2013-08-21 06:08:19 UTC
Building/compiling a package in Fedora is required to be verbose/non-silent.

Please append --disable-silent-rules to %configure to make it verbose.

I can't find anything about that in the guidelines, do you have a link?

No I don't have a link at hand, but verbosity has been a requirement in Fedora rpm-specs ever since Fedora exits, because packages without are unmaintainable and maintains not doing so are working irresponsible.

How do you want to check your build.log for correctness if it doesn't contain the necessary informantion (Like your build.logs) E.g. how do you prove/check your CC calls receive the correct defines and includes?

You're in error to believe a CC call not erroring out means "clean compilation".

Comment 4 Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) 2013-08-21 08:01:34 UTC
Hi,

I'll review this one. Thank you for your initial comments Ralf.

Warm regards,
Ankur

Comment 5 Elad Alfassa 2013-08-21 08:13:10 UTC
I see that your spec talks about "bundled libgd". Do we have any proper reason to bundle it?

You know, nobody forces you to maintain packages if you find them unmaintainable...

What makes you think that I believe this from the one line I wrote above?

I asked you for a link because I'm actually interested in learning if I missed something in the guidelines. No need to call me irresponsible, or to try and guess what people think...

When you assert that something is required, please add a link to the relevant part of the guidelines, to educate your fellow packagers.

I did search for it before asking, and could not find anything about it.

Now, as it happens, I do disagree with you: if it's not required, then I'd rather keep silent rules. Verbose build just spews way too much stuff to be useful in the general case, I prefer enabling it when I really want it (e.g when a build fails weirdly, or before submitting this review request ;)

libgd is meant to be used that way. It's maintained upstream in its own git module, then bundled to a few gnome-* projects as a git submodule.

So the library is in fact maintained only in one place, but because it changes rapidly and is meant to be temporary (the stuff it contains slowly moves to Gtk once it matures) then it gets bundled into the source tarballs.

So yes, it's entirely expected to be bundled this way, it really wouldn't make any sense to package it on its own.

Note that it gets installed in a private directory so it isn't picked up automatically by the linker, and (unless I made a mistake) rpmbuild doesn't add any Provides on it.

A few issues. Some are blockers, but they aren't too complicated to fix.

Comment 9 Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) 2013-08-21 09:33:31 UTC
* a verbose build would be more helpful.

Comment 10 Mathieu Bridon 2013-08-22 03:07:26 UTC
Thanks for the feedback Ankur.

Here is a new package, fixing the issues you mentioned.

Note that I didn't add the --with-gnome option to the %find_lang macro because the package doesn't contain GNOME help files, and as a result the build fails with that option.

Also, due to popular request, I made the build verbose. One thing I hadn't thought about but you mentioned on IRC is that it makes the reviewer's job much easier when it comes to ensuring that the build flags are respected.

I wasn't sure of this either. If it doesn't provide GNOME help files, the --with-gnome flag will fail. No worries.

Thanks. The flags are indeed being respected.
