--- Comment #6 from Ankur Sinha (FranciscoD) sanjay.ankur@gmail.com --- (In reply to Dridi Boukelmoune from comment #5)
You've removed the bundled passfd, but I don't see any alternative. The package should require something that would provide passfd. Since I don't find any, this spec should build both the mod_scgi and python-passfd package, shouldn't it ?
OTOH, /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/scgi/scgi_server.py does
from scgi import passfd
Is it really bundled then, other packages seem to do the same thing ? Sorry about that, the rest of the package looks good (still needs a closer look).
I looked this up. I found a python-passfd[1], but it's quite different from the implementation provided in scgi. I'd say that scgi is using a specific implementation of passfd(pass file descriptor), and this should be included as an internal library, not one that other applications are supposed to use.
I think I should build it, include it in the same package (since we don't want yum finding a python-passfd package), but filter it from requires, since it's only to be used by the python scripts in this package. Does that sound OK Dridi?
Thanks, Ankur
