Hello If you look a the control file from java-common-0.40, you found something like this:
! Package: default-jre ! Architecture: any ! Depends: default-jre-headless (= ${binary:Version}), ${jre}${jre:version}, ! ${misc:Depends} ! Provides: ${jre:provides} ! Description: Standard Java or Java compatible Runtime ! This package points to the Java runtime, or Java compatible ! runtime recommended for the ${jre:arch} architecture, ! which is ${jre} for ${jre:arch}. I my optinion the variables in the description are a problem: - the 'arch' is in the control file of the package, this information don't need in the description. - One package with the same version should be have the same description. (Go to http://packages.debian.org/sid/default-jre: 'Standard Java or Java compatible Runtime This package points to the Java runtime, or Java compatible runtime recommended for the alpha architecture, which is openjdk-6-jre for alpha.' - This make extra load for the translation of this description. I don't find something about this in the debian policy?! Comments? Gruss Grisu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-java-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
