Spec URL: http://www.matbooth.co.uk/fedora/eclipse-epic.spec
SRPM URL: http://www.matbooth.co.uk/fedora/eclipse-epic-0.6.17-1.fc8.src.rpm
Description: EPIC is an open source Perl IDE based on the Eclipse platform. Features supported are syntax highlighting, on-the-fly syntax check, content assist, perldoc support, source formatter, templating support, a regular expression view and a Perl debugger.

This package was originally requested in bug #315661.

This package is dependent on brazil (bug #426883), which EPIC uses for its embedded CGI webserver, so please build and install that package before attempting to build this one.

Rpmlint on the source rpm gives the following:

eclipse-epic.src: W: strange-permission get-epic.sh 0755

This is only the script that checks the source out of CVS and generates the source tarball, which is deliberately executable. It can safely be ignored.

Rpmlint also gives the following warnings:

eclipse-epic.i386: W: dangling-symlink /usr/share/eclipse/plugins/org.epic.lib_0.6.0/lib/antlr.jar /usr/share/java/antlr.jar
eclipse-epic.i386: W: symlink-should-be-relative /usr/share/eclipse/plugins/org.epic.lib_0.6.0/lib/antlr.jar /usr/share/java/antlr.jar
eclipse-epic.i386: W: dangling-symlink /usr/share/eclipse/plugins/org.epic.lib_0.6.0/lib/brazil.jar /usr/share/java/brazil.jar
eclipse-epic.i386: W: symlink-should-be-relative /usr/share/eclipse/plugins/org.epic.lib_0.6.0/lib/brazil.jar /usr/share/java/brazil.jar
eclipse-epic.i386: W: dangling-symlink /usr/share/eclipse/plugins/org.epic.lib_0.6.0/lib/jdom.jar /usr/share/java/jdom.jar
eclipse-epic.i386: W: symlink-should-be-relative /usr/share/eclipse/plugins/org.epic.lib_0.6.0/lib/jdom.jar /usr/share/java/jdom.jar
eclipse-epic.i386: W: dangling-symlink /usr/share/eclipse/plugins/org.epic.lib_0.6.0/lib/gnu-regexp.jar /usr/share/java/gnu-regexp.jar
eclipse-epic.i386: W: symlink-should-be-relative /usr/share/eclipse/plugins/org.epic.lib_0.6.0/lib/gnu-regexp.jar /usr/share/java/gnu-regexp.jar

These links are necessary to tell EPIC where certain libraries are that it needs in order to run, these libs are listed as dependencies so they will always be present. I've based my package somewhat on other eclipse-* packages, some of whom have done the same as I have here (eclipse-quickrex, for example), so I believe these can also be safely ignored.

---

I've also submitted another package for review (bug #426883) which this package is dependent on. These are my first packages so I'm also looking for sponsorship. While I've been working on this package I've given some pre-reviews on bug #417711 and bug #420161 and I'm planning to do more as time permits.

Thanks for your time.
