Hi, Presently a lot of packages are not complying with the Emacs packaging guidelines[1]. These guidelines have been in place in their current form since Fedora 16, so it's probably time to start fixing packages. The lists below detail packages with various problems, and their package owners. [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Emacs 1. Emacs add-ons with -el sub-packages =============================== The guidelines no longer stipulate that elisp source files be in a separate sub-package. The packages below still have -el subpackages. These subpackages should be removed, and the elisp source files should be packaged in the main package. See [1] for more detail. alexlan emacs-common-ess amdunn emacs-common-proofgeneral amdunn emacs-mmm jgu emacs-common-ebib rishi emacs-htmlize rjones emacs-common-tuareg sagarun emacs-color-theme sagarun emacs-goodies sagarun emacs-haskell-mode sagarun emacs-irsim-mode sagarun emacs-rinari sagarun emacs-spice-mode salimma emacs-auto-complete salimma emacs-slime sochotni emacs-pymacs tagoh emacs-apel tagoh emacs-common-w3m tagoh emacs-mew timn emacs-lua tmoertel emacs-magit ueno emacs-common-ddskk ueno emacs-common-riece ueno emacs-ibus ueno emacs-lookup [Generated from: repoquery --repofrompath=this,http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/x86_64/os --repoid=this -s --qf "%{name} %{name}\n" emacs-*-el | grep emacs- | perl -pe 's/^(.+?)-[^-]+-[^-]+$/\1\n/' | fedoradev-pkgowners | sort | column -t] 2. Packages shipping support for Emacs =============================== The guidelines no longer stipulate that packages which also bundle support for Emacs should split out their emacs files in to separate sub-packages. These packages should no longer have emacs-foo and emacs-foo-el sub-packages, and should instead ship those files with the main package which should Require emacs-filesystem.
