Since in the wishlist there's a separate section for things that cannot be redistributed I thought the one in the upper section were check already for redistribution. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2978 --- Comment #5 from Simone Caronni <negativo17(a)gmail.com&gt; 2013-10-03 15:37:35 CEST --- (In reply to comment #4) Thanks, I will try; but I'm not sure Skype leaves the tarballs/packages in place on the servers when a new version comes out and this would need to be sorted out. Is an example of using autodl with tarballs also available? No, package requirements are missing entirely in Skype's official package; there are no dependencies at all. Thanks for the hint, I will do. Does it make any harm on lower Fedora or RHEL distributions? I was also planning to submit the purple-skype plugin after the Skype review; do you think that could use that as the main "wrapper" package? Spec file and source rpm here: Spec URL: http://slaanesh.fedorapeople.org/purple-skype.spec The x86_64 build runs fine with an installed i686 package. I will update the Review Request when I will have something more to share; thanks everybody for inputs. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Last time I've looked at it; it did not have any dependency; now it has and even the prelink configuration files are marked as config: $ rpm -qp --requires skype-4.2.0.11-fedora.i586.rpm /bin/sh /bin/sh alsa-lib >= 1.0.23 config(skype) = 4.2.0.11-fc16 libQtCore.so.4 libQtDBus.so.4 libQtGui.so.4 libQtNetwork.so.4 libQtWebKit.so.4 libQtXml.so.4 libX11.so.6 libXScrnSaver libXext.so.6 libXss.so.1 libXv libXv.so.1 libasound.so.2 libasound.so.2(ALSA_0.9) libasound.so.2(ALSA_0.9.0rc4) libc.so.6 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1.3) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3.4) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.4) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.7) libdl.so.2 libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.0) libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.1) libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.0) libgcc_s.so.1(GLIBC_2.0) libm.so.6 libm.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) libm.so.6(GLIBC_2.1) libpng libpthread.so.0 libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.0) libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.1) libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.2) libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.3.2) librt.so.1 librt.so.1(GLIBC_2.2) libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.11) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.15) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.9) qt >= 4.6 qtwebkit rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1 rtld(GNU_HASH) $ rpm -qplc skype-4.2.0.11-fedora.i586.rpm /etc/dbus-1/system.d/skype.conf /etc/prelink.conf.d/skype.conf It's missing only the %post scriptlets for the icon cache. The only difference from the dynamic non-rpm version it's that it does not contain the avatars pngs. Now I'm asking myself why people keep telling me that installing skype is hard. The only thing that would need to be put in the wrapper package is the alias command (alias skype='PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 skype')... is a package really needed? Probably this ticket can be closed down. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2978 --- Comment #9 from Simone Caronni <negativo17(a)gmail.com&gt; 2013-10-04 09:19:50 CEST --- (In reply to comment #8) Nice to see you too :) Lots of friends here! :D I've looked at the Russian Fedora package and I think it's horrible. There are a few things that I really don't like: - They use different sources for different distribution - In the case of Fedora they download the rpm and unpack it (why not use the tarball already?) - They do a lot of mangling on desktop files etc. which is really not needed, as rpmlint does not complain - They create a fake libtiff link, and end up packaging the %_docdir with the version in it; which breaks the unversioned docdir in Fedora 20: %doc %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version} %{_bindir}/%{name} %{_bindir}/%{name}-bin %{_libdir}/libtiff.so.4 The main problem though is that this does not solve the redistribution licensing issue.. The official package is not in bad shape at all and a wrapper is needed only for the environment variable as in comment #4. So any idea on the matter? Close the review at all? Ship the wrapper only for the variable and the automatic download of the official rpm? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
