This goes out specifically to the Fedora Packaging Committee
Members,
but is certainly open for comments from all.
We've got a lot of drafts that are queued up for next Tuesday's meeting,
so it would be very helpful if you read them all well in advance:
As always, this list is pulled from
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/GuidelinesTodo (which embeds the
table from
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/DraftsTodo ):
ASCII Naming Guidelines (spot) :
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/ASCIINaming
Perl Guidelines (spot) :
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Perl
Both look fine.
The build commands (java calls) look horribly complicated.
I'm quite convinced these should be made into rpm macros.
Looks fine.
As discussed in this thread, I think this should be embedded into
%install and %clean and the Buildroot: tag should just go away.
OK.
Complicated, but I guess OK.
I don't have the Java Guidelines draft on the list yet, but I
hope that
it will be ready by next Tuesday:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Java
Not ready, I guess?
Next Tuesday will undoubtedly be a longer meeting than normal, so
please
be prepared.
I can't promise anything, but I might be able to whip up some patches
for those macros I mentioned above in a few days.
Regards,
R.
