That is probably true for most projects, but it also means we have to maintain that build.xml file. I think some projects are more complicated than this - for instance Tomcat 5 has an elaborate system with lots of build files that I would not like to rewrite myself. I still hope it's not too difficult to shoehorn Maven into the correct behaviour when building Debian packages... > Going slightly off-topic, maybe we could enhance dh_make (et. al.) to > detect *.pom and build.xml files and use the information within them to > generate the dependency information within the debian/control file etc. That would be nice...
