I will not enter into the reasons why this particular package was rejected... The situation is that this package had srs accpected by two different reviewers previously.
Funny enough I spent like an hour on IRC trying to to explain it to you...
What I like to be clarified are
1) versioning policy in the .spec file 2) naming of the source files, should they include version number? 3) quantity of comments that should be added in the changelog?
1. I don't care how you version your package until it makes sense. 1.1 Name it after upstreams version. 1.2 Name it after some SVN checkout. The whole reason for that mail is cause he (alin) packaged some kbibtex svn checkout as kbibtex.tar.bz2 and I declined it cause I want to have it absolutely clear in the archives name what it is in there - e.g. in that case kbibtex-r424.tar.bz2 for svn rev 424. His argument was that :Playground doesn't adhere to strict guidelines which is fine for more advanced stuff (e.g. clean provides and obsoletes) but there never ever should be any argument about being easily able to identify a packages source and a packages archive defining the source version / revision it contains. And therefore any SVN snapshot should contain its revision number in its archives name and a commented line pointing to the SVN repo where that stuff comes from surely wont harm either. IOW, I consider the above mandatory. regards, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
