Jason and Martin: I was using rpmlint version 1.0 and not on Fedora. So perhaps, it is a warning being triggered only by upstream rpmlint. Let's leave the issue as it is. Martin: yes, I do get more or less the same Warnings that you get. More specifically: [root@tesla rpmlint-1.0]# python2.6 -O -u rpmlint.py -C . /home/guido/rpmbuild/SRPMS/ax_emergency_listen-1.3.2-4.src.rpm ax_emergency_listen.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US startup -> start up, start-up, starter ax_emergency_listen.src: W: strange-permission ax_emergency_listen-1.3.2.tar.bz2 0664 ax_emergency_listen.src: W: strange-permission ax_emergency_listen.spec 0664 ax_emergency_listen.src:93: W: macro-in-%changelog %{_sysconfdir} ax_emergency_listen.src:66: W: mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs (spaces: line 66, tab: line 1) 1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 3 errors, 6 warnings. - Fixed the spelling issue in release 1.3.2-5 that is about to come; - Don't know what's wrong with permissions set to 664 (or 644) on the source archive ??? - Fixed the use of macros in changelog (rel 5); - Fixed the use of spaces (rel 5).

To loose debugging information when at the end it is compiled with it ? - What's wrong with the config file being place in /etc/sysconfig (is there a list of known config files somewhere, that is not listing mine ?) ? - Fixed the init script with empty Required-Start and Required-Stop; in the end, the only thing that is required is that the (kiss) interface has been configured with kissattach or something equivalent to that; it doesn't even need the network interface to be up (such as ax0); - It's really pointless to provide a manual page for the daemonizer script (by the way, do you have any better idea on how to "daemonize" without touching the source files ?); - The service is enabled by default, otherwise ? Who decides what is good and what is bad ? Other packages with init files are doing the same... And if the user is installing the package there is a very good chance that he/she intends to use it; - Manual page not compressed in bzip2 ?? No idea. You don't even have got that, Martin. Something to do with upstream rpmlint 1.0 that I am using. Honestly, apart from those warnings that I have already fixed in release 5, I would say everything is fine, at the end it's only warnings and the Packaging Guidelines don't even mention about warnings. However, I remain open to any advice on possible fixes. -- 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
