Is the non-numeric release a big problem here? The guidelines are clear: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines Non-Numeric Version in Release There are two cases in which non-numeric versions occur in the Release field: * Pre-release packages * Snapshot packages This package is neither. We want simple integer release numbers when possible. Just imagine what this package would look like with a proper dist tag added: "ht2html-2.0-1jpp_2fc.fc6.rpm". That's just insane. > There seems to be no mention of licensing in the software itself, but I found > mention of in the sourceforge net. However, rpmlint tells me that both 'Python > License' and 'Python License (CNRI Python License)' are invalid. Is there a cannonical way to call this license? rpmlint can be a bit confusing; in this case, the valid licenses accepted are overridden by a Fedora-specific file /usr/share/rpmlint/config. The string to use is "Python Software Foundation License". However, honestly with absolutely no license mentioned in the source, you really do need to contact upstream and get some sort of statement. When you get that, include the correspondence in the package. (In a perfect world they'd make a new release which includes a license statement, but this package is pretty old so I doubt that would happen.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
