Summary: Review Request: GiGi-0.6.0 - C++ OpenGL GUI library
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=571416
Summary: Review Request: GiGi-0.6.0 - C++ OpenGL GUI library Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: medium Component: Package Review AssignedTo: nobody@fedoraproject.org ReportedBy: kvolny@redhat.com QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: notting@redhat.com, fedora-package-review@redhat.com Estimated Hours: 0.0 Classification: Fedora Target Release: ---
Spec URL: http://fedorapeople.org/~kvolny/GiGi.spec SRPM URL: http://fedorapeople.org/~kvolny/GiGi-0.6.0-1.r803.fc12.src.rpm Description: GiGi is a small, efficient, and feature-rich C++ GUI for OpenGL. It is uses frame-based rendering and has fully customizable graphics, making it ideal for use in low- or high-frame rate applications and games.
The GiGi library is needed for FreeOrion, which I'm trying to package too.
Note that this package includes Adobe Source Libraries; while this is against no-bundled-libraries policy, this does not duplicate any code, as these are not packaged for Fedora yet. I'd like to create separate package for ASL, but it needs more work to adapt - I'll have to work it out with upstream.
As for the version, while SourceForge page offers version 0.7.0 to download, the sources for this package identify itself as 0.6.0, although it is current svn version, so that I keep the package version consistent with the contents.
I've chosen to go with svn snapshot since the released sources are quite old and the project transitions its build system to cmake, so that I don't have to rewrite the spec completely with the new version.

... and right after submitting I've found it does not compile for F13 because of Boost changes :-(
I'll try to work it out

I'll post the updated spec & srpm once I'll verify that FreeOrion compiles and runs with new version (may take a while ...)

--- Comment #5 from Eric Smith eric@brouhaha.com 2010-05-13 17:29:48 EDT --- I started working on packaging GiGi myself because my first search didn't turn up your effort.
I disagree with the reasoning behind your using 0.6.0 for the base version number, as the code from the official 0.7.0 tarball also self-identifies as 0.6.0, and r803 from the subversion repository is definitely more recent than the 0.7.0 release.
I'd suggest building the included GG-Sketch and putting it in a subpackage.

- Could you please use real patches and not write them into the specfile?
well, I don't have time to comment case by case right now, but in general, the reason was using some variables available in .spec but not for standalone patch
- There is no %doc. Could you add at least: all COPYING Readme?
if I recall correctly, GiGi does not install these files so it'd have to be added manually ... sure, it can be included
(Don't know, when I have the time to review this. Could take a while, so if someone else stepps it, no problem.)
heh :) ... considering the state of the upstream sources, there's no rush ... I just wanted to have some usable package, no need to push it into the distro soon, just that others can find it at least somewhere
(In reply to comment #5)
I started working on packaging GiGi myself because my first search didn't turn up your effort.
no problem, as stated above, I haven't too much time to spend on this, feel free to take the best of both efforts and link a new version here

that is true but it can cause troubles in dependencies, I think
please try to resolve the issue with upstream before using newer version number
I'd suggest building the included GG-Sketch and putting it in a subpackage.
feel free to do that :-)

the problem is that the package is advertised as a newer version number, but the authors forgot to change it within the sources so that it identifies itself as the older version ... I see two solutions, one being used right now to keep consistency with what really is in the source, and the other to patch the sources to match the version written on the download page

--- Comment #13 from Jason Tibbitts tibbs@math.uh.edu 2010-12-13 18:17:27 EST --- Wow, you can always count on your upstreams to do completely bizarre things. Honestly I think the current solution is OK, but I'd argue that it deserves at least a comment in the spec explaining why the version is lower than what appears on the download page.
Also, the instructions for exporting from svn should be more explicit, and should provide details about checking out the exact version which is packaged (not just "trunk"). See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SourceURL

maybe you can find some inspiration here ... I managed to compile this version with the new GiGi (with the abovementioned patch), the game even starts (haven't tried to actually play it, though)

That's weird. Can you please tell me which Fedora do you use for building? I'm building FreeOrion (from svn) on rawhide and those modules are not needed.

F14 ... well, maybe those files got in as part of some boost update in between F14 and current rawhide - out of curiousity, could you take a look which package provides Config.cmake and Util.cmake?

There are no Config.cmake or Util.cmake installed but build simple works without them. Not sure what was changed between F14 and rawhide.

just for the record, we have found these files are included in FreeOrion sources fetched from svn as the whole GiGi is included as external item - the external items are missing if you fetch FreeOrion as a tarball
the files are taken from Boost, but recent Boost doesn't include a version of the code compatible with FreeOrion
Adam, I guess after including these files, you can submit a new version to move on with this - or are you working on updating the code not to need these files?
