- The Packager & Vendor tags should not be included, nor refer to the Dag Wieers
repository. Please remove them.
Yes i remove.
- The %setup macro is better invoked with the -q arg since there is no need to
pollute build output with a list of files being extracted from the tar.gz
Ok, will fix it.
- The build process in the package is not honouring the $RPM_OPTS_FLAGS compiler
settings. For example - its compiling with -O -g :
gcc -DLINUX2 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -DVER="2.05" -I../auxtools -I../imgtools -O -Wall -g -c -o jcat.o jcat.c
While current Fedora build flags are:
-O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4
It would be very desirable to have the build process honour these options since they enable various security protection measures. A cursory look at the source code suggests it would probably need a patch applied to the Makefiles since they are hand-written instead of using AutoTools. IMHO, such a patch would be worthwhile, unless there are specific problems compiling the tools with these
flags.
I have tried with the standard flags but it seems that the -j3 is the problem. How i can filter it out?
