Description Brian Durant 2011-10-23 10:15:39 CEST
An Autokey .rpm  is missing in Mageia. From the site: "Autokey is a desktop automation utility for Linux and X11. It allows you to manage collection of scripts and phrases, and assign abbreviations and hotkeys to these. This allows you to execute a script or insert text on demand in whatever program you are using."

Setting version to cauldron, because package requests will usually be done for cauldron first and are then expected to be available in the first stable release that follows.

I tried to package autokey using Fedora's specfile.
The Qt version of Autokey seems to work fine, but the Gtk version is broken. I'll contact the dev upstream to see if it can be fixed; if not, I suppose I won't try to patch it by myself, so Autokey won't make it in Mageia for now.

I've tried also to package autokey using Fedora's specfile for Mageia 3. But rpmbuild complains about notify-python and pygtk2-libglade unsatisfied dependancies for autokey-0.90.4-3.noarch.
Mageia package is python-notify, not notify-python.
No package Mageia for pygtk2-libglade.
Is there a way to give some parameters to rpmbuild ?

I have no particular interest in Autokey, so I did not investigate it further. See the two attachments for a spec file of autokey which should build the QT version properly in Mageia 3 (but IIRC, the gtk version is broken).

For instruction about how to build a RPM for the spec file: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Packagers_RPM_tutorial
