Description: libssh2-python is a python binding for the libssh2 library.


[clalance at localhost SPECS]$ rpmlint libssh2-python.spec
libssh2-python.spec: W: invalid-url Source0: libssh2-python-0.7.1.tar.gz
0 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 1 warnings.
[clalance at localhost SPECS]$ rpmlint
/home/clalance/rpmbuild/SRPMS/libssh2-python-0.7.1-1.fc14.src.rpm
libssh2-python.src: W: invalid-license LGPL
libssh2-python.src: W: invalid-url Source0: libssh2-python-0.7.1.tar.gz
1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 2 warnings.

The upstream project does not have tarball releases, so I believe the
"invalid-url" warning is acceptable.  The "invalid-license" is clearly more of
an issue.  The upstream git repository just says "LGPL", which I have
reproduced here.  I have been in contact with the author of the binding for
clarification of his license.  Once he responds, I will update the SPEC file
accordingly.

Finally, I know that the fedora guidelines prefer "python-<foo>" to
"<foo>-python", but the upstream author of the bindings prefers
"libssh2-python", which is what I've done here.
