User:Tibbs/Review Template

Here is the template I use for doing package reviews. You're welcome to steal from it if you find it useful. Of course, you should only use the parts of this template for the package that you're reviewing. For example, there's no real point in checking compiler flags and debuginfo generation for noarch packages.

A quick script to grab the upstream source and compare it to what's in an (unpacked) srpm:

A more involved script that I use do to all of my mock builds which also installs the built packages into the chroot and runs rpmlint on the built and installed packages is available from http://www.math.uh.edu/~tibbs/dobuild. I can't promise that it will be remotely useful with any configuration besides mine, but perhaps someone will use it as a base for further hacking.
