Summary: Review Request: mapnik - a Free toolkit for developing mapping applications

------- Additional Comments From mtasaka@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  2008-03-27 12:23 EST -------
For 0.5.0-0.2

* License
  - The license of mapnik is LGPLv2+.

* Release number
  - If this tarball is created from svn repo, IMO it is better
    to include not date but svn revision number for Release tag.

* Explicit library dependency
-----------------------------------------------------------
Requires: boost
Requires: zlib
Requires: freetype
Requires: proj
Requires: gdal
Requires: cairo
Requires: cairomm
-----------------------------------------------------------
  - These library related requires should be catched by
    find_require.sh and these type of explicit Requries must be
    removed (except for some cases such as mono/java related
    packages)

-----------------------------------------------------------
Requires: python
-----------------------------------------------------------
  - This requires is not needed and must be removed.

* Requires for subpackages
  - Requires for -devel subpackage are not added automatically
    and you have to find out and add proper Requires.
    * Example:
      %_includedir/%name/jpeg_io.hpp contains
-----------------------------------------------------------
    25  extern "C"
    26  {
    27  #include <jpeglib.h>
    28  }
-----------------------------------------------------------
       This means that mapnik-devel should have
       "Requires: libjpeg-devel".
    The following command is useful for detecting such dependency.
-----------------------------------------------------------
$ rpm -ql mapnik-devel | grep /usr/include | xargs grep -h 'include ' | sort | uniq
-----------------------------------------------------------

   - Similarly, please check the dependency for -python subpackage
     by
-----------------------------------------------------------
$ rpm -ql mapnik-python | grep python | xargs grep -h 'import ' | sort | uniq
-----------------------------------------------------------

* Fedora specific compilation flags
  - This is not yet correctly honored.

* Use of system wide libraries
  - build.log shows
-----------------------------------------------------------
    76  g++ -o agg/src/agg_vcgen_dash.o -c -O3 -fPIC -DNDEBUG -Iagg/include
agg/src/agg_vcgen_dash.cpp
   101  ar rc agg/libagg.a agg/src/agg_line_profile_aa.o ......
   190  g++ -o src/libmapnik.so ....  -L/usr/local/lib -lagg -lfreetype ....
-----------------------------------------------------------
     Here libmapnik.so uses internal libagg.a, not libagg.so provided
     by agg-devel.
     Please apply patches so that libmapnik.so uses system-wide
     libagg.so
  - Also
------------------------------------------------------------
   166  g++ -o tinyxml/tinystr.os .... tinyxml/tinystr.cpp
   190  g++ -o src/libmapnik.so ....  tinyxml/tinystr.os ...
------------------------------------------------------------
     Here libmapnik.so uses internal tinyxml, however Fedora has
     tinyxml-devel so please use system-wide tinyxml.
   - By the way Fedora's optimation level is -O2 and -O3 is not
     allowed.

* Macros
  - Please use macros. For example, /usr must be %{_prefix}.

* Fonts
  - Patch1 shows
-------------------------------------------------------------
    19           datasource_cache::instance()->register_datasources(mapnik_dir +
"/lib/mapnik/input/"); 
    20  -        freetype_engine::register_font(mapnik_dir +
"/lib/mapnik/fonts/DejaVuSans.ttf");
    21  +        freetype_engine::register_font(mapnik_dir +
"/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf");
-------------------------------------------------------------
     However /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf does not exist on
     my system.
     * By the way is 'mapnik_dir + "/usr/...."' correct?
   - Also if you want to use dejavu fonts, it must be added to
     Requires (I am not talking about BuildRequires here).
