Hi all,
I've started the process of cleaning up my ROS Fuerte packages and submitting them for review. Currently, the following are posted (in rough build order:)
rospack: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927458 ros: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927461 roscpp_core: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927462 python-genmsg: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927470 python-gencpp: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927473 python-genlisp: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927475 python-genpy: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927478
Please have a look and let me know if you have any comments or suggestions (especially on package naming.) I'm still not sure if these names are too generic or not. Where applicable, each package Provides: ros-%{packagename} as well, and those are the names I'm using when another package Requires: them.
The next package I'm working (std_msgs) has a really generic name, I think I'm going to call it ros-std_msgs before I put it up. I know the packaging guidelines discourage using underscores in package names, but I think since that's what upstream is using that it's ok (if I'm reading that guideline right)
I'll work on getting the rest of the packages up in the coming days.
