--- Comment #3 from Derek Pressnall <derekp7@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ---
I have made the requested adjustments, and some additional cleanup in the spec
file.

Will look into the libeconf suggestion for the config file as part of the
upstream project, however the config is minimal (containing a path to the
catalog database and file repositories).  In the upstream project, future
configuration items may be planned to be handled out of the SQLite DB used for
the backup catalog in something like a sysparams table (at that point, even the
"vault=" specification can be migrated to the DB).  Still weighing the pros and
cons of that.

Currently there isn't publicly available unit tests, all testing at the moment
requires manual intervention.  However that will be automated in an upcoming
release.  In that case, what type of resources does the Fedora build
infrastructure have available for testing?  For example, simple tests could be
made to create sample directories to backup up and verify, with verification of
the expiration/purge processes.  However, some tests require creation of
various sparse files with varying amount of "holes" (this test the ability to
ingest GNU tar format sparse entries -- there are edge cases in the format at 4
holes, 24, and multiples of 20 afterwards, so testing should include the
boundary points).  Also GNU tar switches file size representation at 2GB
(switches from octal to network byte order binary format).  So that would
require large files to test against.  For now, will concentrate on the minimal
test cases to ensure basic functionality though.

I do have one question in the Source specification.  The Sourc0 line has the
full URL for the upstream source.  Is a full URL also required for Source1,
which points to the ".sysusers" file consumed by %sysusers_create_compat?  It
appears to not have a URL specified in other spec files I've looked at.

Thanks.
