How to differentiate "console-log" from "console.log"
by T.C. Hollingsworth 05 Jun '13

05 Jun '13

Generally, we try to name Node.js packages using their name from the npm repository, with the "nodejs-" prefix, as stated in the Node.js naming guidelines [1]. Unfortunately, npm names are allowed to use some characters that RPM packages aren't, like periods ("."). Usually you would just replace the dot with a dash or something, but we've run into a little problem. There are npm packages named "console-log" and "console.log", and Jamie Nguyen has packaged the latter. [2] I'd rather not this be named "nodejs-console-log" in case the real "console-log" gets packaged later. We could use a underscore, but the Naming Guidelines [3] makes it seem like it needs some special approval. Should we file a FPC ticket asking for approval to use underscores in this fashion, or does anyone have any better ideas? Thanks! -T.C.

nodejs-ronn and rubygem-ronn conflicts
by Björn Esser 05 Jun '13

yum complains: Transaction check error: file /usr/bin/ronn from install of nodejs-ronn-0.4.0-1.fc19.noarch conflicts with file from package rubygem-ronn-0.7.3-3.fc19.noarch This should get fixed. F18 and rawhide might be affected, too, since rubygem-ronn is not build for EPEL. Cheers, Björn

rubygem-ronn needs groff-base to work properly, but does NOT require
by Björn Esser 04 Jun '13

04 Jun '13

Hello list! As I have a pkg (git-extras, currently in review) which `BuildRequires: rubygem-ronn` I need to have `BuildRequires: groff-base`, too, for having the manpages build properly. See build-log without groff-base: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5463867 See build-log with groff-base: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5463901 Without `BuildRequires: groff-base` build log shows ... roff: ./git-alias.1 sh: groff: command not found html: ./git-alias.1.html +man ... during `/bin/ronn`-invokcation Shall I file a bug against rubygem-ronn? Dear Maintainer of rubygem-ronn, fix this asap, please. Cheers, Björn

Changelog usage clarification
by Antonio Trande 02 Jun '13

02 Jun '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all. I need a clarification about the Changelog section in a spec file during a package review process. In particular, pursuant to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Changelogs guidelines: > Every time you make changes, that is, whenever you increment the E-V-R >of a package, add a changelog entry. > ... Changelog entries should provide a brief summary of the changes > done to the package between releases, including noting updating to > a new version, adding a patch, fixing other spec sections, note > bugs fixed, and CVE's if any In https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=966201, David says that Changelog changes' list is not necessary during package review process because it is still a "initial package" state. For all my packages and not only, every one always asks me to update the Changelog, also for a minimal modification in a package pre-review/review process. To be sure and to resolve this issue with David, I need some clarification regard to how to use properly the Changelog section since the first package review submit.
