Hi, I have been assigned to a legacy Java project, which uses several messed up Ant buildfiles. I'm going to replace or clean up the build system as part of project maintainance.
I read that Maven (similar to other language-specific package management software) has been a problem for Debian for a long time and that Debian struggles with the general Java software packaging mentality which often ignores system wide package managers. One of the goals for the project is to make software packaging and distribution easier and automatic. Gentoo and Fedora seem to support Maven and Ant, but prefer Ant. Is that also true for Debian? If so, are there any preferred build target naming conventions, like [1]?
