Hi Okay, I must have confused it with something else - I thought they were backwards compatible. I will recall this RFS and undo the Provides on SVN later, thanks for catching this. :) > Also there are no > common files between two packages. So 'Replaces' doesn't make sense > either. Policy example for "replace package and force removal of the old" lists a replaces, and I also added a symlink from servlet-api-2.3.jar to the 2.4 so with this upload they would have common files. > If there is just one (build)rdep of libservlet2.3-java then let's just > migrate it to libservlet2.4-java and get rid of previous package. > That would be ideal, but this is a package in poor shape in contrib. It uses non of its Build-Depends (except ant and java), so you could just trim out the B-Ds, however, I do not really want to do a "half-done" upload of it. I have imported the package to git [1] and started working on it. As far as I can tell we do not have "jrcs-diff.jar" which is needed. We also need some other libraries, but so far I have ignored those (since there were code snippets in d/rules to build jspwiki without these). There is also a new upstream release of jspwiki - I do not know if it would make the situation better or worse. The current jspwiki compiles against servlet2.5. Anyhow, feel free to help me with this one - it would be really great to get rid of servlet2.3 before Squeeze. Note: Even if we get jspwiki into shape it will stay in contrib due to jabsorb, which we had to move to non-free (upstream have been notified about it). > > Onkar > > ~Niels [1] http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-java/jspwiki.git Note: it is currently set to use the precompiled binarys. I have not cleaned the tarball yet, so it complicates some rules. Just comment in the commands in override_dh_auto_{build,clean} and apply the jabsorb api patch. With that we have stripped out a small part and build with only one binary jar. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkw3AycACgkQVCqoiq1YlqyUmACePk033SjrEHOb4EeSFcRnIPkD wrYAoODwyOSu4TKTEPl2gRrCWOdAA5HH =2ReU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-java-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
