As was said > upthread, there's always apt-get source. apt-get source is neither convenient nor reasonable, particularly with jars that are the result of complex builds involving ant, maven, etc. If there are -dbg for other libraries why they can't be -dbg for java ones? Besides the source code, having the line number information, methods, etc. makes a big difference when examining stack traces. The objective of packing java libraries is so people don't need to fetch and compile them themselves. If we only provide stripped libraries with no source they will be good for execution but not for development. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJLKKgHAAoJEMJ09r9KJ69qRwEQAJmV+xpY6ZipPwPAJlrJyiM1 F7qFjKGuBMKF0+ewxKb5eYyft81tsA3sTOwcRiAaWyUKdfXq4NLwlQGYi6/agL0y 7sTIn34HUQf9dvkMwz88U2+fILib7zXdFob3fuXsd3Rfzg+bsKvWjDQkY8BO3bJ+ 9+2P9ad/wuKZzNWG/gzsuf3Old0FjFa5m06f0eFdWwOzV0Caa4/boOl8EAQveAM1 r2P5l6PWP9S8a6RPomux16Z78bqm0J9HFsYfixH4IiC/y118U/VbZA2W23A1Ko1w adqBOnJTnBJQaNNUWDMmVjhI3EcxEcS53WhLX9xrNAso+fmTlVgcN+sGJJC1ogAa J86iIxP7GJGKyWb7M9L34nkYJllmfhAEe9gywHduY6iXOl9dwRuSVB1MumkA3WCx 0b7FYejcSVPhT79dSi/6HRPIiCvDWxs/AaDF21HbwGKeYBoko5PKA1p2LlQOrTy2 ZWKFBO3waZt0KaDRKQzcEIsRNlhq75yLeYz4rA6OmBb0ZHkLv/wDXJMldrm00EXU 8SRHzq99hPWcjfOPguDGF7ujSu9YGBraTk/B+cwt6ra9nQewJN+4T2OH+9kdxeeq EEngYiaXCHuQXJi2AL4ONfg1N3aSltUVdvKe7jxA02ZbvY474xv9EFL9x7lKOrjF ocsm+laouoq+IVygv3lZ =3YZt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-java-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
