In this case I think it should be https://github.com/axboe/liburing/archive/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz#%{name}-%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz, the ending weirdness is due to github renaming the archive strangely.

This looks like a spec file changelog. Nothing wrong with that, but it should be no wider than 72 characters to avoid making git log look like a mess. Normally I'd just fix that up, but another comment below. > -URL: http://git.kernel.dk/cgit/liburing/ > +URL: http://brick.kernel.dk/snaps/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz > +BuildRequires: gcc I enabled snapshots in cgit, so maybe we can just point at those? Something like: URL: https://git.kernel.dk/cgit/liburing/snapshot/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz Yes, and there's also https now, finally got that enabled on kernel.dk after running that site for more than two decades. > %changelog > +* Thu Oct 31 2019 Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@xxxxxxxxxx> - 0.2-1 > +- Initial fedora package. > + Maybe keep this distro agnostic? -- Jens Axboe
