it is just a pre-review
Things To Check
- MUST: rpmlint must be run on every package. The output should be
posted in the review.
$ rpmlint -i devilspie-0.17.1-1.fc5.src.rpm
W: devilspie mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs
The specfile mixes use of spaces and tabs for indentation, which is a
cosmetic annoyance. Use either spaces or tabs for indentation, not both.
So I replace all the tabs with spaces in the spec file. (see spec.patch)
After the modify, the rpmlint is cleanly.
- MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines.
OK
- MUST: The spec file name must match the base package %{name}, in the
format %{name}.spec
OK
- MUST: The package must meet the Packaging Guidelines.
OK
- MUST: The package must be licensed with an open-source compatible
license and meet other legal requirements as defined in the legal
section of Packaging Guidelines.
OK - License is GPL
- MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the
actual license.
OK
- MUST: If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the
license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the
license(s) for the package must be included in %doc.
OK
- MUST: The spec file must be written in American English.
OK
- MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible. If the reviewer
is unable to read the spec file, it will be impossible to perform a
review. Fedora is not the place for entries into the Obfuscated Code
Contest (http://www.ioccc.org/).
OK
- MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream
source, as provided in the spec URL. Reviewers should use md5sum for
this task.
OK
- MUST: The package must
successfully compile and build into binary rpms on at least one
supported architecture.
OK - mock build cleanly for FC5 i386
- MUST: If the package does not successfully compile, build or work on
an architecture, then those architectures should be listed in the spec
in ExcludeArch. Each architecture listed in ExcludeArch needs to have
a bug filed in bugzilla, describing the reason that the package does
not compile/build/work on that architecture. The bug number should
then be placed in a comment, next to the corresponding ExcludeArch
line. New packages will not have bugzilla entries during the review
process, so they should put this description in the comment until the
package is approved, then file the bugzilla entry, and replace the
long explanation with the bug number. (Extras Only) The bug should be
marked as blocking one (or more) of the following bugs to simplify
tracking such issues: FE-ExcludeArch-x86, FE-ExcludeArch-x64,
FE-ExcludeArch-ppc
OK
- MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires, except
for any that are listed in the exceptions section of Packaging
Guidelines; inclusion of those as BuildRequires is optional. Apply
common sense.
OK
- MUST: The spec file MUST handle locales properly. This is done by
using the %find_lang macro. Using %{_datadir}/locale/* is strictly
forbidden.
OK
- MUST: If the package contains shared library files located in the
dynamic linker's default paths, that package must call ldconfig in
%post and %postun. If the package has multiple subpackages with
libraries, each subpackage should also have a %post/%postun section
that calls /sbin/ldconfig. An example of the correct syntax for this
is:
%post -p /sbin/ldconfig
%postun -p /sbin/ldconfig
OK - this package contains no shared library files
- MUST: If the package is designed to be relocatable, the packager
must state this fact in the request for review, along with the
rationalization for relocation of that specific package. Without this,
use of Prefix: /usr is considered a blocker.
OK - this package is not relocatable
- MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates. If it does
not create a directory that it uses, then it should require a package
which does create that directory. The exception to this are
directories listed explicitly in the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html), as it is safe to assume
that those directories exist.
- MUST: A package must not contain any duplicate files in the %files listing.
OK
- MUST: Permissions on files must be set properly. Executables should
be set with executable permissions, for example. Every %files section
must include a %defattr(...) line.
OK
- MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf
%{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
OK
- MUST: Each package must consistently use macros, as described in the
macros section of Packaging Guidelines.
OK
- MUST: The package must contain code, or permissable content. This is
described in detail in the code vs. content section of Packaging
Guidelines.
OK
-
MUST: Large documentation files should go in a -doc subpackage. (The
definition of large is left up to the packager's best judgement, but
is not restricted to size. Large can refer to either size or quantity)
OK
- MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect
the runtime of the application. To summarize: If it is in %doc, the
program must run properly if it is not present.
OK
- MUST: Header files or static libraries must be in a -devel package.
OK
- MUST: Files used by pkgconfig (.pc files) must be in a -devel package.
OK
- MUST: If a package contains library files with a suffix (e.g.
libfoo.so.1.1), then library files that end in .so (without suffix)
must go in a -devel package.
OK
- MUST: In the vast majority of cases, devel packages must require the
base package using a fully versioned dependency: Requires: %{name} =
%{version}-%{release}
OK
- MUST: Packages must NOT contain any .la libtool archives, these
should be removed in the spec.
OK
- MUST: Packages containing GUI applications must include a
%{name}.desktop file, and that file must be properly installed with
desktop-file-install in the %install section. This is described in
detail in the desktop files section of Packaging Guidelines. If you
feel that your packaged GUI application does not need a .desktop file,
you must put a comment in the spec file with your explanation.
OK
- MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by
other packages. The rule of thumb here is that the first package to be
installed should own the files or directories that other packages may
rely upon. This means, for example, that no package in Fedora should
ever share ownership with any of the files or directories owned by the
filesystem or man package. If you feel that you have a good reason to
own a file or directory that another package owns, then please present
that at package review time.
OK
SHOULD Items:
- SHOULD: If the source package does not include license text(s) as a
separate file from upstream, the packager SHOULD query upstream to
include it.
OK
- SHOULD: The description and summary sections in the package spec
file should contain translations for supported Non-English languages,
if available.
OK
- SHOULD: The reviewer should test
that the package builds in mock.
OK - mock build success and cleanly
- SHOULD: The package should compile and build into binary rpms on all
supported architectures.
OK
- SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package functions as
described. A package should not segfault instead of running, for
example.
OK
- SHOULD: If scriptlets are used, those scriptlets must be sane. This
is vague, and left up to the reviewers judgement to determine sanity.
OK
- SHOULD: Usually, subpackages other than devel should require the
base package using a fully versioned dependency.
OK
