Summary: Review Request: Slony-1 (postgresql-slony-engine)
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199154
------- Additional Comments From ruben@rubenkerkhof.com 2007-07-09 15:36 EST ------- Hello,
See configure file for this.
You mean the PACKAGE_NAME? The tarball is slony1-1.2.10.tar.bz2, the upstream project is called Slony-I, and the first line of the README file says Slony-I. From the NamingGuidelines: When naming a package, the name should match the upstream tarball or project name from which this software came.
Missing yacc parser.y parser.c
? No idea what this means.
yacc is provided by bison, and seems to be used by Slony-I: http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/
- Since postgresql_autodoc is now available, maybe you can add it to the BuildRequires
I don't think so. Is there anything that depends on autodoc?
configure is searching for it, so I assume it is used.
Some people may skip doc builds.
But doc is a separate package in Fedora, and people can just choose to not install it.
Slony looks for /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_config first. If someone has a source installation of PostgreSQL, then the build will break
This won't be a problem when the package is build on the Fedora buildservers. I understand that you want to maintain one upstream specfile for all versions of Red Hat and Fedora, but having a clean spec in Fedora makes things more easier in the long run.
A few other comments:
- Double BuildRequires for docbook-style-dsssl - Is %kerbdir still needed? If not, there's no need to change CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS and CFLAGS and a simple %configure will do.
