The tarball is just an svn checkout, > no repackaging. Then let me rephrase it: Your tarballs violate the GPLv2. > The files you have mentioned are included by the upstream. Right, but it's you who is tarring up their sources. > Anyway I will check it and discuss with them, also will compare with the > latest SVN. There actually are several issues at once: - Them shipping Apache-v2-licensed works (android) bundled with GPLv2 licenced works violates the GPLv2. - Them bundling fonts and android code is a mistake. > Hope you have gone through my previous comments and change-logs, the reason > behind the SVN version: > > - The stable branch is not that much "stable" with all supported Fedora > versions like 13/14/15, specifically qt breaks. > - The bug fixes are been made to SVN and not porting properly back to the > stable release. > - Navit upstream also recommend to use the SVN version > - Since this project is very rapidly evolving users are very keen to test the > latest features and enhancements. > > Conclusion: Will Switch back to stable after 1.0 release. My conclusion: ATM, this package is too immature for inclusion into a distro. > Maps are not on a separate package now, because: > > - For quick testing, navit is very rapidly evolving. Seems as if we are facing a miscommunication: I want you to package them as a noarch _subpackage_ of navit. (With my FPC head on) You currently are shipping a big, optional data file as part of an application package. > - People expect to see "some" maps quickly after the installation Yes, the way upstream currently is shipping maps is not really useful. They need to do something about it. > - The maps directory contains the POI icons as well, in different formats - > xpm, svg, png etc, need to differentiate and repack all of them properly Again, I am talking about the actual map file. >Conclusion: Up to 1.0 we will keep this in the same package Under these circumstances, you can consider this review failed. -- 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. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
