Please take up the this package as I am not able to dedicate enough time towards packaging and Fedora in general ( Little busy with my job). You can put me as a co maintainer. If you want I can also review the package at some point of time. By the way, if this package can wait for some time then I will take up the task after some time, once I have sufficient time. -- 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. ___ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review

Thanks for the explanation.
Have you tested wicd? I am having a lot of disconnections/password re-entering
when using NetworkManager on one of my netbooks.
Do you think wicd can help in this case (I saw some posts
stating that)?

You are correct. I thought python-setuptools was built as a subpackage of
python, but it's not. I wanted to require python >= 2.4
> Also you do not need %dir for claiming ownership,
What %dir statement are you referring to?
The first one is used to prevent accidentally packaging unwanted files in
%{wicddir} and %{wicddir}/backends. We just want python files there. If you
just use %{wicddir}, you wont realize if you accidentally include other files
due to a bad setup.py or a bad tarball.
The other %dir statements in %{_sharedstatedir} are not really needed from a
technical POV, but from a human one. Other packagers should be able to see that
these dirs are empty from a glance at the spec.
> and you should exclude any useless egg-info.
Why is it useless? Are you familiar with
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Python/Eggs
> %{python_sitelib}/%{name}
> %exclude %{python_sitelib}/*.egg-info
Please don't use excludes, as the break rpm's size calculation.
> and why did you comment the noarch?
The package itself is noarch, but it cannot be packaged noarch as it puts the
pm-utils script into %{_libdir}. I suggest to package them as a arch'ed
subpackage so the main wicd package can be noarch.
I also suggest to package the GUI and the TUI separately. It would be cool to
have a wireless config tool without X and it would allow users of the GUI to
install wicd without python-urwid.

python-setuptools is version 0.6c9 on F10. Therefore, you should not use a
versioned
BuildRequires: python-setuptools-devel >= 2.4
Also you do not need %dir for claiming ownership, and you should exclude
any useless egg-info.
This is enough, I guess.

# For noarch packages: sitelib
%{python_sitelib}/%{name}
%exclude %{python_sitelib}/*.egg-info
and why did you comment the noarch?

The hardcoded /usr/lib/ is only used, when you don't pass %{_libdir} as an
option:
%{__python} setup.py configure --distro=redhat \
--lib=%{wicddir} \
--share=%{_datadir}/%{name} \
--etc=%{_sysconfdir}/%{name} \
--bin=%{_bindir} \
--sbin=%{_sbindir} \
--mandir=%{_mandir} \
--varlib=%{_sharedstatedir}/wicd \
--pmutils=%{_libdir}/pm-utils/sleep.d \
--resume=%{_sysconfdir}/acpi/resume.d \
--suspend=%{_sysconfdir}/acpi/suspend.d \
--docdir=%{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version} \
--no-install-kde \
--no-install-docs
... and everything is fine.

It does not build on x86_64.
/usr/lib is hardcoded in setup.py. Therefore,
%{_libdir} will install in the wrong place.
You can use
sed -i -e 's|/usr/lib|%{_libdir}|g' setup.py
to make it install in /usr/lib64,
but I do not understand why the source
want to install python scripts there.
