Eclipse is a really powerful IDE for Java projects and I am thinking about the possibility for backporting it to sarge by recompiling the source under GCC 3.3 and the non-free j2sdk >= 1.4 (blackdown or IBM) and put the Eclipse Sarge backport packages under sarge-backports/contrib (since j2sdk in non-free)
I have looked into debian/control.in and debian/rules. In debian/control.in, unfortunately GCJ4.0 is in the fixed list under build-depends and I can't see any mechanisms fin debian/rules which I can toggle for debian sarge backport and regenerate the new control files for dependencies for the sarge-backport (which is possible in openoffice.org-2.0.1-2) Is it still possible to backport Eclipse 3.1.1-8 to sarge-backports? If so, what could we do to facilitate this backport? Regards, Kai-Cheung Leung Machen Sie aus 14 Cent spielend bis zu 100 Euro!
