Bug #40974
Updated by Nathan Cutler almost 5 years ago
The openSUSE Build Service implements a packaging check that encourages packagers to start the package summary with a capital letter. Quoting from https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_checks
<pre>
summary-not-capitalized
Package summaries should start with a capital letter, but should not end with a dot (.).
</pre>
When building ceph in the OBS, we see in the build log:
<pre>
[16139s] ceph-mgr-diskprediction-cloud.noarch: E: summary-not-capitalized (Badness: 20) C ceph-mgr diskprediction_cloud plugin
[16139s] ceph-mgr-diskprediction-local.noarch: E: summary-not-capitalized (Badness: 20) C ceph-mgr diskprediction_local plugin
[16139s] ceph-mgr-rook.noarch: E: summary-not-capitalized (Badness: 20) C ceph-mgr rook plugin
[16139s] ceph-mgr-ssh.noarch: E: summary-not-capitalized (Badness: 20) C ceph-mgr ssh module
[16139s] Summary doesn't begin with a capital letter.
</pre>
Also, though there is no explicit check for this, it seems prudent for the summary to be more than a mere repetition of the package name.
