https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4444 Bug ID: 4444 Summary: firebird-emu - Third-party emulator for ARM-based TI calculators Product: Package Reviews Version: Current Hardware: x86_64 OS: GNU/Linux Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P1 Component: Review Request Assignee: rpmfusion-package-review(a)rpmfusion.org Reporter: rosser.bjr(a)gmail.com CC: rpmfusion-package-review(a)rpmfusion.org Source URL: https://www.acm.jhu.edu/~bjr/fedora/rpmfusion/firebird/firebird-emu.spec SRPM URL: https://www.acm.jhu.edu/~bjr/fedora/rpmfusion/firebird/firebird-emu-1.2-1... Description: This project is the community, third-party TI Nspire emulator, Texas Instruments' ARM-based series of graphing calculators. It supports the emulation of Touchpad, CX and CX CAS calcs on Android, iOS, Linux, Mac and Windows. FAS Username: tc01 Why not in Fedora: firebird-emu is pure FOSS, but not only does it require TI's proprietary operating system for the Nspire line of calculators, but also the proprietary boot/base code blobs from the calculator itself. Thus as per the emulator policy, since this package isn't functional without any proprietary blobs, I believe this package still needs to be in RPM Fusion. rpmlint output: firebird-emu.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US calcs -> calls, calms, calks firebird-emu.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US iOS -> OS, SOS, DOS firebird-emu.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US calcs -> calls, calms, calks firebird-emu.x86_64: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US iOS -> OS, SOS, DOS firebird-emu.x86_64: W: no-manual-page-for-binary firebird firebird-emu.x86_64: W: no-manual-page-for-binary firebird-send Note: upstream usually uses the name "firebird" for this package, but the name "firebird" belongs to another package in Fedora, so I opted for "firebird-emu" (as this name is also sometimes used by upstream). There is a potential for name conflicts. Currently the firebird package installs a %{_sbindir}/firebird [1]. This package installs a %{_bindir}/firebird. This doesn't cause a conflict per _se_, but if both are on $PATH there's a potential for confusion. Should I rename the binary from firebird -> firebird-emu as well? As far as I can tell, the packages do not currently conflict in any other way.
