[Mageia-dev] Big problem with a rpm => freeswitch

[D.Morgan]

Hello,

while looking to beta1 isos pbs i saw a pb with a rpm that shouldn't
have been allowed to go in mageia cauldron. The package is freeswitch.

First the spec file is "excuse me the word" awful ( see
http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/freeswitch/current/SPECS/freeswitch.spec?revision=328996&view=markup
)

1- macro redefined
2- Use of some LIBDIR PKGCONFIGDIR macros instead of using the std
rpms macros  like :


%define PREFIX          %{_prefix}
%define EXECPREFIX      %{_exec_prefix}
%define BINDIR          %{_bindir}
%define SBINDIR         %{_sbindir}
%define LIBEXECDIR      %{_libexecdir}/%name
%define SYSCONFDIR      %{_sysconfdir}/%name
%define SHARESTATEDIR   %{_sharedstatedir}/%name
%define LOCALSTATEDIR   %{_localstatedir}/lib/%name
%define LIBDIR          %{_libdir}
%define INCLUDEDIR      %{_includedir}


3-  libs are in the main package
4- the package can break other packages like firefox as it provides
%{_libdir}/libnspr4.so


I think this package must be removed from mageia as long as its
packaging isn't cleaned and should be reviewed before being included
in mageia in the future.

WDYT ?

Regards,
D.
