--- Comment #13 from Jussi Lehtola <jussi.lehtola at iki.fi> 2011-07-18 08:57:23 EDT ---
I'm not sure whether paco-gui is the best name for the GUI package; I would
just name it gpaco. You can do this by specifying
 %package -n gpaco
instead of 
 %package gui
and the thing for %files as well.

**

rpmlint output:
paco.src:23: W: configure-without-libdir-spec
paco.x86_64: W: shared-lib-calls-exit /usr/lib64/libpaco-log.so.0.0.0
exit at GLIBC_2.2.5
paco.x86_64: W: no-manual-page-for-binary ocap
paco-gui.x86_64: W: no-documentation
paco-gui.x86_64: W: no-manual-page-for-binary gpaco
4 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 5 warnings.


The configure-without-libdir-spec warning is probably caused by the ./configure
in the %description, and is as such erroneus.

Since this is a C++ program, there's no need to call exit, as one can throw
exceptions instead. However, this change would need to be done by upstream.

Other warnings are OK.

**

MUST: The package does not yet exist in Fedora. The Review Request is not a
duplicate. OK

MUST: The spec file for the package is legible and macros are used
consistently. 
 NEEDSWORK
- Macro styles mixed.
- Please remove the unnecessary empty lines in -gui, e.g., the empty line at
the start of the %description ends up in the result rpm as well.

MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines. OK
MUST: The spec file name must match the base package %{name}. OK
MUST: The package must be licensed with a Fedora approved license and meet the 
Licensing Guidelines. OK

MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual license.
NEEDSWORK
- As stated by Martin above in comment #5, the license is somewhat badly
defined.
- gpaco/about.cc defines a GPLv2+ license, so do lib/paco/getopt.h and
lib/paco/getopt.cc.
- License tag should reflect the license of the result, which is anyway in this
case GPL+ + GPLv2+ = GPLv2+.
- Please change License tag to GPLv2+ and ask upstream to add proper license
headers in every source code file.

MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream source, as
provided in the spec URL. OK
$ md5sum paco-2.0.9.tar.bz2 ../SOURCES/paco-2.0.9.tar.bz2 
d2debbea1b11156470f7fd849bb93c80  paco-2.0.9.tar.bz2
d2debbea1b11156470f7fd849bb93c80  ../SOURCES/paco-2.0.9.tar.bz2

MUST: Permissions on files must be set properly. OK
MUST: Large documentation files must go in a -doc subpackage. N/A
MUST: All relevant items are included in %doc. Items in %doc do not affect

**

This package is in pretty good shape, so you'll just need to do another
submission and a couple of informal reviews as instructed in comment #12.
