--- Comment #5 from Jason Tibbitts tibbs@math.uh.edu 2010-11-19 14:16:52 EST --- Current comaintainers for graphviz are alexlan and tremble; I don't think you're in there.
Some random comments:
0.8.3 seems to be available.
If you can do a parallel make (using %{?_smp_mflags}), please do so; otherwise please indicate in a comment why it does not work. Who likes to wait when we all have multicore machines these days?
Please use the recommended scriptlets from http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:ScriptletSnippets#Texinfo.
rpmlint complains many times about dangling symlinks: nodebrain-devel.x86_64: W: dangling-relative-symlink /usr/lib64/nb/nb_peer.so nb_peer.so.0.0.1 which is a bit odd. I think the issue is that rpmlint doesn't understand things going in a subdirectory of _libdir, but then that begs the question of just what the stuff in /usr/lib(64)/nb really is. If that stuff is just plugins that are dlopen'ed, there's probably no need for them to have devel symlinks. lib/nbmodule.c:nbModuleLoad does imply that there are dlopen'ed plugins.
nodebrain.x86_64: E: zero-length /usr/share/doc/nodebrain-0.8.0/ChangeLog Any idea why the ChangeLog is empty? Is there any point in shipping it if it's empty?
nodebrain.x86_64: W: file-not-utf8 /usr/share/info/nbTutorial.info.gz It looks like there's some kind of weird microsoft-encoded single-quite stuff in nbTutorial.info: illustrate this, let<92>s first write a simple Perl script named Should probably be replaced with a proper single quote. There may be more stuff in there; I didn't search through the entire 4000 line document.
nodebrain.x86_64: W: no-manual-page-for-binary nb-0.8.0 This is OK; the nb link has a manpage.
nodebrain-debuginfo.x86_64: E: debuginfo-without-sources This implies that either the executables are being stripped, or the program isn't compiled with the proper flags. It looks like it's the latter; for whatever reason, the configure script is ignoring the OS-supplied compiler flags. This must be fixed.
