Here are a few issues from the rpmlint output:
git-annex.src: W: invalid-url Source0: git-annex-0.11.tar.bz2
The Source0 needs to be a full URL, not just a filename. I can't seem to find a tarball on the git-annex website. Can you work with upstream to get them to publish a tarball for each new version?
I'll contact him about it. It was generated from a tag in the repository (see instructions above the URL: tag).
git-annex.x86_64: W: spurious-executable-perm /usr/share/man/man1/git-annex.1.gz
Oops.
This should be fixed.
git-annex-debuginfo.x86_64: E: debuginfo-without-sources
Have you tried to fix this error?
The -debuginfo package actually needs disabled since Haskell doesn't support it.
A few other issues:
- The %description seems a little long. Most packages seem to have one or
maybe two brief paragraphs.
Taken from the website for the most part. I'll look at trimming it down.
- This is a dumb preference, but I would slightly change the summary to
"Manage files with git, without checking in their contents".
Yeah, also taken from the website. Your wording is better. Will appear in the next version.
- It looks like there have been a few version updates since the last time the
spec file was updated.
Will appear in the next update. (I don't keep all the RR's I have 100% up-to-date, just the ones that have attention since there are sometimes a dozen updates between be initially submitting and getting a reviewer).
- Have you sent the patches to the Makefile upstream? By the way, it looks
like the documentation is correctly installed by the Makefile in a newer version of git-annex.
They've been sent and applied in some way. I think the author changed around some of them. I'll look at it more closely when I update it.
- Two of the dependencies are unavailable on Fedora 14. I can't really do
anything more on this review until the ghc-pcre-light package is in.
Hence the Blocks: field above :) . I have a local repository which I build against and has pretty much every package in the review list in it. My server has had issues since a power outage 2 or 3 weeks ago and I still haven't had a chance to look into it.
