------- Additional Comments From vivekl at redhat.com  2007-02-12 19:06 EST -------
X suggests the subsection needs attention
+ is a positive comment
. is a specific comment about a problem

MUST:
X* package is named appropriately
 . 0:1.2-2jpp -> 0:1.2-2jpp.1%{?dist}
 . http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/ExceptionJPackage
 - match upstream tarball or project name
   + The project is commons-io upstream (Apache) but since JPackage is
     consistent with the jakarta-commons packages, this is fine IMO

 - try to match previous incarnations in other distributions/packagers for
consistency
   + OK
 - specfile should be %{name}.spec
   + OK
 - non-numeric characters should only be used in Release (ie. cvs or
   something)
   + OK
 - for non-numerics (pre-release, CVS snapshots, etc.), see
   http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#PackageRelease
   + OK
 - if case sensitivity is requested by upstream or you feel it should be
   not just lowercase, do so; otherwise, use all lower case for the name
   + N/A

* is it legal for Fedora to distribute this?
 - OSI-approved
   + ASL

 - not a kernel module
 - not shareware
 - is it covered by patents?
 - it *probably* shouldn't be an emulator
 - no binary firmware
  + None of the above apply

* license field matches the actual license.
   + OK
* license is open source-compatible.
 - use acronyms for licences where common
   + OK
* specfile name matches %{name}
   + OK
* verify source and patches (md5sum matches upstream, know what the patches do)
   + OK
 - if upstream doesn't release source drops, put *clear* instructions on
   how to generate the the source drop; ie. 
  # svn export blah/tag blah
  # tar cjf blah-version-src.tar.bz2 blah
   + N/A
* skim the summary and description for typos, etc.
   + OK
* correct buildroot
 - should be:
   %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n)
   + OK
X* if %{?dist} is used, it should be in that form (note the ? and %
locations)
   - Fix this based on the link mentioned above

* license text included in package and marked with %doc
   + OK

* keep old changelog entries; use judgement when removing (too old?
useless?)
  + N/A

* packages meets FHS (http://www.pathname.com/fhs/)
  + OK

X* rpmlint on <this package>.srpm and rpms gives no output
 - justify warnings if you think they shouldn't be there

XW: jakarta-commons-io-javadoc dangerous-command-in-%post rm
W: jakarta-commons-io-javadoc dangerous-command-in-%postun rm
. You can get rid of these warnings by implementing javadoc handling as
  described in the following URL (since no %post/%postun is required):
  https://zarb.org/pipermail/jpackage-discuss/2007-February/011119.html 

W: jakarta-commons-io non-standard-group Development/Libraries/Java
The value of the Group tag in the package is not valid.  Valid groups are:
"Amusements/Games", "Amusements/Graphics", "Applications/Archiving",
"Applications/Communications", "Applications/Databases",
"Applications/Editors", "Applications/Emulators", "Applications/Engineering",

. Group warnings can be ignored in all  cases.

W: jakarta-commons-io mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs (spaces: line 9, tab: line
52)
The specfile mixes use of spaces and tabs for indentation, which is a
cosmetic annoyance.  Use either spaces or tabs for indentation, not both.
. Use :set expandtab and :%retab in vim to get rid of these 
 
* changelog should be in one of these formats:

  * Fri Jun 23 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating at redhat.com> - 0.6-4
  - And fix the link syntax.

  * Fri Jun 23 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating at redhat.com> 0.6-4
  - And fix the link syntax.

  * Fri Jun 23 2006 Jesse Keating <jkeating at redhat.com>
  - 0.6-4
  - And fix the link syntax.
  + OK

* Packager tag should not be used
  + OK
X* Vendor and distribution tag should not be used
  . Please remove these

* use License and not Copyright 
  + OK
* Summary tag should not end in a period
  + OK
* if possible, replace PreReq with Requires(pre) and/or Requires(post)
  + OK
X * specfile is legible
 - this is largely subjective; use your judgement
  . Minor fixes in formatting if possible (<80 character lines etc.)
* package successfully compiles and builds on at least x86
  + Builds on mock

* BuildRequires are proper
  + Builds on mock
* summary should be a short and concise description of the package
  + OK
* description expands upon summary (don't include installation
instructions)
  + OK
X * make sure lines are <= 80 characters
* specfile written in American English
  + OK
X* make a -doc sub-package if necessary
  . Javadoc package should be changed to implement the new standard from 
    JPackage, see link mentioned above
  . Add Requires(x) on /bin/rm, /bin/ln etc. as appropriate
 - see
  
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-9bbfa57478f0460c6160947a6bf795249488182b
* packages including libraries should exclude static libraries if possible
* don't use rpath
* config files should usually be marked with %config(noreplace)
* GUI apps should contain .desktop files
* should the package contain a -devel sub-package?
  + None of these apply
* use macros appropriately and consistently
 - ie. %{buildroot} and %{optflags} vs. $RPM_BUILD_ROOT and $RPM_OPT_FLAGS
  + OK
* don't use %makeinstall
* locale data handling correct (find_lang)
 - if translations included, add BR: gettext and use %find_lang %{name} at the
   end of %install
  + None of these apply
X* consider using cp -p to preserve timestamps
  . Use cp -p and install -p where possible

* split Requires(pre,post) into two separate lines
  + N/A

* package should probably not be relocatable
  + Non-relocatable
* package contains code
 - see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#CodeVsContent
 - in general, there should be no offensive content
  + OK

X* package should own all directories and files
  . Need %{_javadocdir}/%{_javadir} which are owned by jpackage-utils
    Should add Requires(pre/postun) on jpackage-utils in javadoc package and
    main package

* there should be no %files duplicates
  + OK
* file permissions should be okay; %defattrs should be present
  + OK
* %clean should be present
  + OK
* %doc files should not affect runtime
  + OK
* if it is a web apps, it should be in /usr/share/%{name} and *not* /var/www
  + Not a webapp
* verify the final provides and requires of the binary RPMs
  + OK, as long as the suggestions about naming and requires etc. are
    implemented
