Summary: Review Request: iniparser - a library for parsing ini-style files https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=479951 Summary: Review Request: iniparser - a library for parsing ini-style files Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: Package Review AssignedTo: nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx QAContact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: notting@xxxxxxxxxx, fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx Estimated Hours: 0.0 Classification: Fedora Spec URL: http://www.alexhudson.com/fedora/iniparser/iniparser.spec SRPM URL: http://www.alexhudson.com/fedora/iniparser/iniparser-3.0b-1.fc10.src.rpm Description: IniParser is a simple ANSI-C library used by other applications to parse "ini-style" files as used mainly on Windows. There is a small problem with this library; it doesn't come with a "full" build system - it has a Makefile which compiles the library, but doesn't even have "make install", thus the manual fiddling around in the spec file. I suspect this makes the -debuginfo package less useful - it doesn't come with copies of the source, for example. Another issue is that the library is simply called libiniparser.so.0 - there is no minor version. I imagine this would make it difficult to correctly work out dependencies (for example, if new API was added to the library later and an application wished to declare that dependency) - however, there is also a compatibility issue there if it's changed just for Fedora? I'm contemplating writing a patch which would effectively drop in a more standard autotools build, but would appreciate any easier ideas. Also, this is only the second package I've submitted and I'm not a package maintainer (yet, hopefully ;) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
