Sorry for the late reply here - I was hoping someone with more knowledge on the subject would jump in. IIRC, the changes Thierry made ages ago to the build system were for two major reasons:
1.) To prevent the embedded tomcat server from being used 2.) To use system JARs rather than bundling copies Unfortunately, all attempts to do this with 2.4 ended up with a build that didn't work. If you are using their build system and the two problems above no longer exist/have been solved in another way, please do finish what you have as gwt is broken right now :-( -Brian On Sun, Jan 6, 2013 at 1:54 PM, Thomas Koch <tho...@koch.ro> wrote: > Hi, > > I've done a bit of work on gwt 2.5.0 but could do with a little help of my > friends now, especially if you know the build system (and the patches > applied > to it). > > What I did: > > - applied and updated the patches from debian/patches, see my fix_build2 > branch in http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-java/gwt.git > > - started packaging of android-json-org, a reimplementation of crockfords > json.org, available in git: #697311 > > - started packaging of the new gwt dep closure-compiler, available in git: > #622928 > > I can compile dev, user and servlet now but the debian/build.xml does not > work > and I'm not sure about the reasoning of all the changes to upstreams build > system.
