The proposed split has a simple rationale - move rarely used features to separate packages and keep the total number of packages to the minimum: 'poco' - contains retail builds of the general-purpose libraries 'poco-extra' - retail builds of the libraries that are either rarely used or pull peculiar dependencies 'poco-debug' - debug builds (POCO makefiles produce them) of all libraries, they are used only during development of the POCO-based applications for testing purposes 'poco-devel' - headers and .so links to retail and debug libraries 'poco-debuginfo' - automatically generated package with debug-related information But I agree to further split 'poco-extra' into three separate 'poco-mysql', 'poco-odbc' and 'poco-zip'. This variant (although requiring increased typing from the .spec compositor) is more reasonable. *2. I am not sure that 'poco-debug' has to be split because 'poco-devel', as a development package, should pull everything anyway (see http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libpoco-dev which partially demonstrates this). But it may be renamed to 'poco-testing' in order to avoid associations with 'poco-debuginfo'. *3. The perl build dependency is mentioned as "/usr/bin/perl" instead of "perl" in order to emphasize the dependency on a particular file (a CLI program in this case) but not on a package; probably the same situation as with "/sbin/ldconfig" being used instead of "glibc". -- 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
