Summary: Review Request: tex-simplecv - latex class for writing curricula vitae Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: medium Component: Package Review AssignedTo: nobody@fedoraproject.org ReportedBy: jamatos@fc.up.pt QAContact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: fedora-package-review@redhat.com,notting@redhat.com
Spec URL: http://jamatos.fedorapeople.org/tex-simplecv.spec SRPM URL: http://jamatos.fedorapeople.org/tex-simplecv-1.6-1.src.rpm Description: The simplecv document class is intended to provide a simple yet elegant way to write your curriculum vitae (resume). This is a repackaging of the |cv| class that has been available with LyX for a long time. The change of name has been made necessary by the existence of another |cv| class on CTAN.
This package is needed since lyx no longer carries this package and users of previous versions of lyx may use documents that require it (bug #428526).

Also the source may change while the source name remains the same. I don't think this is an issue, but you may want to rename it anyway to avoid ambiguities.

A simple

should do.

See /usr/share/texmf/ptex/platex/base/ as an example.
Initially I thought about creating a subpackage that would require tetex-doc (or texlive-doc) and would install the processed dtx file in the same hierarchy under tetex-doc directories, in this case:
/usr/share/texmf/doc/latex/simplecv/
What do you think?

------- Additional Comments From pertusus@free.fr 2008-01-15 05:06 EST ------- I don't think it is right. The installed file should be the pdf or dvi file. So indeed you need to do something along
latex simplecv.dtx or pdflatex simplecv.dtx
Then there is the issue about what to do with the .pdf and/or .dvi file generated, put them in %doc or in
/usr/share/texmf/doc/latex/simplecv/
I don't have an answer for that. Maybe worth asking on the packaging list.

My fault for not explaining this but believe it, or not, what I wrote above meant exactly this. :-)

That was my question. :-)
Also sooner or later we need to develop some guidelines for (la)tex packages.

I would like to reopen this report for several reasons, first because it is need in lyx and second because this should allow us to gather enough experience and insight as to draft package guidelines for tex packages and to ease the review of future packages.

I note you're not using the dist tag; you package enough things in Fedora that I assume you can deal with the issues, but lately even experienced packagers have run into issues caused by not using the dist tag so I would still recommend it. But in the end it's your choice.
* source files match upstream: a011ab46e968e4dfabfa8b56a892b0ae05aaeb481c8c8d21dc0d82e2c213bacb simplecv.zip * package meets naming and versioning guidelines. * specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently. * summary is OK. * description is OK. * build root is OK. * license field matches the actual license. * license is open source-compatible. * license text not included upstream. * latest version is being packaged. * BuildRequires are proper. * %clean is present. * package builds in mock (rawhide, x86_64). * package installs properly. * rpmlint is silent. * final provides and requires are sane: tex-simplecv-1.6-5.noarch.rpm tex-simplecv = 1.6-5 = /usr/bin/texhash tetex-latex
tex-simplecv-doc-1.6-5.noarch.rpm tex-simplecv-doc = 1.6-5 = /usr/bin/texhash tetex-doc
* owns the directories it creates. * doesn't own any directories it shouldn't. * no duplicates in %files. * file permissions are appropriate. * scriptlets OK (texhash). * code, not content. * %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package.
APPROVED

What kind of issue? It seems to me that for noarch packages like this one no %dist is better.
There is an issue of directory dependency for the -doc subpackage. First it seems that the location should be %{_texmf}/doc/latex/%{real_name} Then for directory owning it should depend on texlive-texmf or on texlive-texmf-doc.
I don't think the tetex-doc dependency is strictly needed, however, contrary to what I imply with Comment #13.
Last think is that maybe you could use tex(latex) instead of tetex-latex if don't target F-8.

------- Additional Comments From tibbs@math.uh.edu 2008-06-29 12:16 EST ------- You still have to keep the release tag different between branches; without dist you just have to do it manually, and even experienced packagers have issues. Especially since you generally import into devel first, but its release has to be higher than the others.
You are absolutely correct about the doc directory; _texmf/doc/tex doesn't actually seem to exist in the distro. I know I checked it, but
I was trusting you on the tetex-doc dependency; I honestly don't understand why it would be necessary, but I'm not TeX expert and I figured it wouldn't really hurt anything. I'm curious as to why you said it was necessary, though. Also, since you seem to know more about TeX than I, are the texhash scriptlets really necessary for the -doc package?
Did the F8 tex packages grow the tex(latex) provides? It doesn't look like it from here.

Higher or equal. But indeed, it is less easy to bump in previous release without becoming greater than devel. However the dist really doesn't makes sense here.
You are absolutely correct about the doc directory; _texmf/doc/tex doesn't actually seem to exist in the distro. I know I checked it, but I was trusting you on the tetex-doc dependency; I honestly don't understand why it would be necessary, but I'm not TeX expert and I figured it wouldn't really hurt anything.
(tetex/texlive)-doc holds the texdoc utility which can be used to view docs in the texmf tree. texlive-texmf-doc holds most of the documentation, and the _texmf/doc/latex is owned by texlive-texmf and texlive-texmf-doc.
So the texlive-texmf or texlive-texmf-doc is in my opinion needed for directory owning. But (tetex/texlive)-doc is less needed, in my opinion, the doc can be viewed without texdoc.
Also, since you seem to know more about TeX than I, are the texhash scriptlets really necessary for the -doc package?
Yes, they are if in the texmf tree, since then they can be accessed by texdoc which uses kpathsea to locate them.
Did the F8 tex packages grow the tex(latex) provides? It doesn't look like it from here.
No it doesn't, but I said in Comment #20 not to do it is F-8 is targeted.

------- Additional Comments From tibbs@math.uh.edu 2008-06-29 17:05 EST ------- Honestly, I really meant different releases. A package this small is not going to get the manual copy and inheritance behavior, you cannot tag the exact same EVR into two different branches, and if you could tag them you wouldn't be able to build them, and if you could build them bodhi wouldn't let you issue updates for them. So I'm really not kidding, the releases will need to be different.
So that's why I just recommend using the dist tag and saving the trouble of keeping the releases straight manually. But it's up to the maintainer, of course.

------- Additional Comments From jamatos@fc.up.pt 2008-07-08 13:05 EST ------- After hearing (reading) all the arguments I will add the dist tag, after all this package is quite small so the space factor is not an issue here.
Up on importing I will replace the dependency on texlive-texmf-doc to guarantee the ownership of the doc directory.
