Replying to [comment:11 zap]:
1. If you would look at the .desktop patch you would see why I did
it
:) it will:
1. Change the name in menu from QtDMM to Digital Multimeter
1. Add a description for the menu item (it will show as a tooltip if
you keep
the mouse pointer over the menu item for some time)
1. Adds translation to Russian for the program name and
description
1. Changes icon name from /usr/share/pixmaps/qtdmm.png to simply
qtdmm -
there's no need for a fully-qualified file name, and it's prone to
errors
That's fine. But do not forget to send the patches upstream.
1. The .srpm has a packager name in it just because I have
"%dist
.fc9.zap" in my ~/.rpmmacros. Of course, the final version will
be
renamed, it's just for my convenience to differentiate src.rpms. Anyway
the final .src.rpm will be rebuilt by somebody/something, or am I wrong?
Understood and yes you are right, the final package will be built by the
[

system.
1. ok about empty line separators, although I have split it in three
blocks by sense - first block: package description, second: package
source; third: build information. About indentions - I don't like it at
all, and all Fedora packages I have seen don't use indentions, so
indenting will make our RPMs inconsistent with mainline. Once long time
ago I also was indenting everything like that but dropped this practice
for several reasons.
No problem. You can stick to whatever seems good to you but make sure that
the spec file is legible.
On the wiki there's a line:
"Make sure that you mention in the 'Review Description' field that this
is your first package, and you are seeking a sponsor"
do I have to do this, or I have already passed the review process?
Yes you do if you are not already a Fedora package maintainer. The review
done here is unofficial review and the actual fedora review process has to
be passed. Create a [

FAS] account and sign the CLA. Then apply the CLA and apply for the
Fedora Package Maintainers group. File a review request in bugzilla as
told earlier and do not forget to set the FE_NEEDSPONSOR in the Blocks
section. Then paste the review link here and official review and
sponsoring will be done.
