https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=474787 --- Comment #6 from D Haley <my...@yahoo.com> 2009-01-14 07:31:36 EDT --- SPEC URL: http://dhd.selfip.com/427e/stxxl-3.spec SRPM URL: http://dhd.selfip.com/427e/stxxl-1.2.1-3.fc10.src.rpm Rpmlint: SRPM: empty SPEC: empty RPM: empty >"Summary" of -devel package is not "short and concise" as recommended by the >guidelines, but two sentences squeezed into an overlong line. I shortened it in the main package, though I thought it was pretty short to begin with. In the devel section it has been corrected, as it was clearly overlong. The main summary is slightly shortened but cannot be shortened further without losing information. >Run rpmlint also on your src.rpm My apologies if I had not -- I thought I had, as stated in comment 3. Clearly not, as running it produces a myriad of errors. >src.rpm download URL gives 404 Not Found Again, that's just sloppy on my part -- I didn't transfer it to the server. Both the old and the new have been uploaded. > %description of the -devel package is the same as the description of the main package. Fixed. > -devel pkg typically must "Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release}" to stay in sync with the main package. Fixed > %files devel section contains unowned directories! Fixed -- would have been evident had i run rpmlint correctly. >%files devel section is missing %defattr parameter Done. >Note : That could also be the answer to your problem with the .so symlink. The >symlink must be in the -devel package, and the -devel package requires the main >package which contains the library file. It wasn't that -- I worked it out in the end with the help of http://en.opensuse.org/Shared_Library_Packaging_Policy . Which was very clear, both in procedure and rationale. Seems to keep rpmlint happy and matches what is happening in other packages in my /usr/lib/. I hope this package is less sloppy than the last attempt! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
