Hi,
I'm using the BS rpmlint integration from home:michal-m:rpmlint for one of my projects but it has some tests which are broken or not useful:
1.
"This package contains a library and provides no %post scriptlet containing a call to ldconfig."
"This package contains a library and provides no %postun scriptlet containing a call to ldconfig."
The package contains:
%post -p /sbin/ldconfig
%postun -p /sbin/ldconfig
-> check broken
2.
"There is no Packager tag in your package. You have to specify a packager using the Packager tag. Ex: Packager: John Doo <john.doo@xxxxxxxxxxx>."
openSUSE's very own package sources have no Packager tag as well. It's added from the buildsystem to the resulting RPMs though.
How about making this a warning only?
3.
"Your package containing shared libraries does not end in a digit and
should probably be split."
For this certain package it already was discussed that it's not a package which fits into the shlib-policy but anyway I guess rpmlint can't decide on that.
4.
"W: unstripped-binary-or-object *.debug"
Yeah, I mean debug files created when %debug_package is used are unstripped. That's the plan ;-)
5.
"E: statically-linked-binary *.debug"
"The package installs a statically linked binary or object file."
Seems that debug symbols for binaries are recognized as statically-linked-binary.
6.
"The jar file does not contain a META-INF/MANIFEST file."
Not all JAR files have to contain a META-INF/MANIFEST file, how about a warning instead of an error?
Probably some of the checks could be tweaked?
