[Bug 1638] New: Review request: gargoyle - multi-format interactive fiction interpreter

http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1638 Summary: Review request: gargoyle - multi-format interactive fiction interpreter Product: Package Reviews Version: Current Platform: All OS/Version: GNU/Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: Review Request AssignedTo: rpmfusion-package-review(a)rpmfusion.org ReportedBy: ct.spammable(a)gmail.com CC: rpmfusion-package-review(a)rpmfusion.org Blocks: 2,30 Estimated Hours: 0.0 spec: http://carlolab.appspot.com/files/gargoyle.spec SRPM: http://carlolab.appspot.com/files/gargoyle-2010.1-1.fc14.src.rpm Description: --- Gargoyle is an interpreter for interactive fiction (text adventure) story files which supports all major formats. It puts special emphasis on excellent text display. See http://ifdb.tads.org/ and http://www.ifarchive.org/ for many free works. This package excludes the Alan 2, Alan 3 and Hugo interpreters due to licensing restrictions. --- This package cannot be in Fedora because it depends on smpeg-libs, which is only in RPM Fusion. rpmlint on SRPM: gargoyle.src: W: invalid-url URL: http://ccxvii.net/gargoyle/ <urlopen error [Errno 111] Connection refused> gargoyle.src: W: invalid-url Source0: gargoyle-2010.1.tar.bz2 1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 3 warnings. rpmlint on RPM: gargoyle.x86_64: E: explicit-lib-dependency liberation-mono-fonts gargoyle.x86_64: E: explicit-lib-dependency smpeg-libs gargoyle.x86_64: W: invalid-url URL: http://ccxvii.net/gargoyle/ <urlopen error [Errno 111] Connection refused> gargoyle.x86_64: W: unstripped-binary-or-object /usr/lib64/gargoyle/libgarglk.so 1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 2 errors, 3 warnings. My defences: * http://ccxvii.net/gargoyle/ is certainly a valid URL, not sure what's going on * I'm using my own packaged version of the source code than just an URL because the official source package contains some code under licenses which are not Fedora-compliant. See below for background information. * For some reason, it only complains about the explicit dependency on liberation-mono-fonts but not linux-libertine-fonts. I'm including both because these are the fonts the interpreter uses (can be changed via a config file); if they are not present, the interpreter aborts. * If I don't list smpeg-libs as an explicit dependency, a mock build fails because of -lsmpeg * I don't know why rpmbuild fails to strip libgarglk.so. It does manage to strip all the executables in the package. Since this is my first package (Fedora or RPM Fusion), I require a sponsor. Some further background: Gargoyle (http://ccxvii.net/gargoyle/) bundles interpreters for several interactive fiction story file formats, including Z-code, TADS and others. It uses the same subpixel text rendering presentation for all of these; it does not expose the UI for any of the bundled interpreters, but only the interpreter core. It's been around for a few years and is very popular in the Interactive Fiction community. It's already in several other distros: http://code.google.com/p/garglk/wiki/Packages The bundled interpreters have a variety of licenses. A couple don't have Fedora-approved licenses, so these had to be left out even from the SRPM. The license situation may change in the future, so they may be included in a future version.
