Package: src:closure-compiler Version: 20130227+dfsg1-4 Severity: minor Howdy, thank you for packaging the Closure compiler.
Searching APT for a package containing the Closure compiler command for compiling ECMAScript, I expect to find the package in the “web” section by the name ‘closure-compiler’. I shouldn't need to care that it's implemented in Java, and am not expecting a command-line program to be classified in the library packages. The source package should produce separate binary packages: * Package: libclosure-compiler-java Section: java Suggests: libclosure-compiler-java-doc Description: JavaScript optimizing compiler — runtime libraries * Package: closure-compiler Section: web Depends: default-jre-headless, libclosure-compiler-java Description: JavaScript optimizing compiler * Package: libclosure-compiler-java-doc Section: doc Suggests: libclosure-compiler-java Description: JavaScript optimizing compiler — API documentation Since the ‘default-jre-headless’ dependency would then only be in a package specifically for the command, this would allow removing the Lintian override for “needless-dependency-on-jre”. -- \ 己所不欲、勿施于人。 | `\ (What is undesirable to you, do not do to others.) | _o__) —孔夫子 Confucius (551 BCE – 479 BCE) | Ben Finney <b...@benfinney.id.au>
