libx86.src:69: W: macro-in-comment %endif libx86.src:67: W: macro-in-comment %ifnarch libx86.src:67: W: macro-in-comment %ix86 There is a unescaped macro after a shell style comment in the specfile. Macros are expanded everywhere, so check if it can cause a problem in this case and escape the macro with another leading % if appropriate. libx86-1.x86_64: W: no-version-in-last-changelog libx86-devel-static.x86_64: W: no-version-in-last-changelog libx86-devel.x86_64: W: no-version-in-last-changelog libx86.src: W: no-version-in-last-changelog The latest changelog entry doesn't contain a version. Please insert the version that is coherent with the version of the package and rebuild it. libx86-1.x86_64: W: self-obsoletion libx86 <= 1.1 obsoletes libx86 = 1.1 The package obsoletes itself. This is known to cause errors in various tools and should thus be avoided, usually by using appropriately versioned Obsoletes and/or Provides and avoiding unversioned ones. libx86-1.x86_64: W: shared-lib-calls-exit /usr/lib64/libx86.so.1 exit@GLIBC_2.2.5 This library package calls exit() or _exit(), probably in a non-fork() context. Doing so from a library is strongly discouraged - when a library function calls exit(), it prevents the calling program from handling the error, reporting it to the user, closing files properly, and cleaning up any state that the program has. It is preferred for the library to return an actual error code and let the calling program decide how to handle the situation. libx86-devel-static.x86_64: W: shlib-policy-missing-lib Your package starts with 'lib' as part of its name, but does not provide any libraries. It must not be called a lib-package then. Give it a more sensible name. libx86-1.x86_64: E: summary-not-capitalized (Badness: 20) C x86 real-mode library libx86.src: E: summary-not-capitalized (Badness: 20) C x86 real-mode library Summary doesn't begin with a capital letter. 4 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 2 errors, 10 warnings.
