Spec URL: http://www.matbooth.co.uk/fedora/brazil.spec
SRPM URL: http://www.matbooth.co.uk/fedora/brazil-2.3-1.fc8.src.rpm
Description: Brazil is as an extremely small footprint HTTP stack and flexible 
architecture for adding URL based interfaces to arbitrary applications and 
devices from Sun Research Labs. This package contains the core set of classes 
that are not dependent on any other external java libraries.

This package is submitted because it is a dependency of eclipse-epic (another 
new package I am about to submit and will link to shortly). Only the core 
classes are built and packaged because that is all the needed for eclipse-epic 
and I didn't want to cause dependencies of all brazil's ancilliary classes to 
unnecessarily become dependencies for eclipse-epic. And I'm thinking that if 
demand occurs in the future for the full gamut of brazil classes, I can easily 
add a brazil-extras sub-package(s) or something.

---

I notice that some other Java libs (jdom for example) use the 
"Development/Libraries/Java" group however this yields a non-standard group 
rpmlint warning, so I've just used "Development/Libraries" for now. I hope this 
is fine.

Rpmlint on the source rpm gives the following:

brazil.src: W: strange-permission get-brazil.sh 0755

This is merely the script that grabs the source from Sun's Download Centre, 
which is deliberately executable. It can safely be ignored.

There's also a minor error in the javadoc generation, but I didn't think it was 
really worth patching out a single comment line from the source, especially 
when it doesn't appear to adversely affect it in any way.

---

This is the first of two packages I am submitting, the second is dependent on 
this one. These are my first packages so I'm also looking for sponsorship. 
While I've been working on this package I've given some pre-reviews on bug 
#417711 and bug #420161 and I'm planning to do more as time permits.

Thanks for your time.
