Some may view it as helpful while others may think its an annoyance. Since you're packaging it, I think you should get some leeway in deciding whats appropriate. And heres a quick review: good: + source matches upstream + specfile is legible and looks sane + license is correct (GPL) according to the upstream web site but no license is included in the source + builds in mock on FC4 + permissions and dir ownership look OK + code not content nits: - Why the "--disable-versioning" flag? IMHO, its a pretty cool and useful feature. - Please consider naming the package "environment-modules" instead of just "modules" since it is the upstream project name (the "Environment Modules Project") and its a lot less ambiguous. The name "modules" gets used for all sorts of stuff including kernel modules and perhaps a more descriptive name can help avoid some confusion for new users? Its just a suggestion, though. - rpmlint reports: E: modules script-without-shellbang /usr/share/Modules/init/tcsh E: modules script-without-shellbang /usr/share/Modules/init/bash W: modules hidden-file-or-dir /usr/share/Modules/init/.modulespath E: modules script-without-shellbang /usr/share/Modules/init/.modulespath E: modules script-without-shellbang /usr/share/Modules/init/csh E: modules script-without-shellbang /usr/share/Modules/init/zsh E: modules script-without-shellbang /usr/share/Modules/init/python E: modules script-without-shellbang /usr/share/Modules/init/perl E: modules script-without-shellbang /usr/share/Modules/init/sh E: modules script-without-shellbang /usr/share/Modules/init/ksh but I agree that these can probably be safely ignored - Please consider either adding the paper: http://modules.sourceforge.net/docs/MC2_whitney_paper.pdf to the documentation or adding a brief REAME-style link to the homepage and the paper since its very helpful and well- written document. Exactly the sort of thing new users should read! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
