Summary: Review Request: python-nss - Python bindings for NSS https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=453684 ------- Additional Comments From jdennis@xxxxxxxxxx 2008-07-03 09:48 EST ------- I had misunderstood your comment about the Provides. I looked at all the other python spec files and saw many of them included what looked like a Provides of their own package which didn't make much sense to me, but I figured there was some mechanism at play I was unaware of. More careful examination reveals in those cases the names had subtle variations in spelling, hence the need for the provides. You are correct the %{name}-%{version} is meaningless, as to whether Provides: python-nspr would be useful is hard to say at this point. My expectation is folks will only use the NSPR component if they are using NSS. Why? Because NSPR is a platform independent wrapper around system services much like Python and it's libraries are so there is little point in using the NSPR component of the binding unless you're compelled to because NSS depends on it. Thus I think the right thing is to remove the provides completely at this juncture, which I have done. I will update the files with a new revision number shortly, the only change from a packaging perspective will be the removal of the Provides. -- 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, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
