Greetings!
My name is John S. Arntz I just signed up for this list and would like to
introduce myself. I have used Fedora since Fedora 5 and love the packages that
RPMFusion offers (Before RPMFusion I used FreshRPMs). I'm not a programmer, but
I know enough to make a basic package. I plan to make my first package
submission to Bugzilla soon, fceux, an NES Emulator based on FCE Ultra. My
first question, though, where would be a good place to host the .spec and .srpm
files? I don't have a website anwhere. I'm aware of sites like rapidshare,
megaupload, qshare, and mediafire. But I'm not sure if those would be the best
places to host the files. Once I am able to find a place to post them, I will
take the plunge and file my submission for review. Also, the source contains
gfceux which is a GTK Glade frontend based on GFCE Ultra. How should I handle
packaging this? Should I make them two separate packages and submissions, since
they are actually two builds included in
the same tarball and have to be built separately, or as a sub-package of
fceux? The .spec files that I have made are based upon fce-ultra and
gfce-ultra's .spec files so as they exist now, I have them as two unique
packages. You feedback is greatly appreciated.
Hi John,
Welcome!
About hosting webspace for spec / srpms in review. Let me know when you have a
solution, I have the same problem :)
Xavier, Perhaps we can provide some space on rpmfusion infra for rpmfusion
contributors ?
As for how to handle the bundled gtk front-end, the rule of thumb is 1 tar bal
one srpm,
so I would put it in a sub package,
Regards,
Hans
