Hi all, We have two versions of plexus-utils in Debian, the version 1.5.15 used by Maven 2 in the plexus-utils package, and the version 2.0.5 used by Maven 3.0.x in the plexus-utils2 package. Maven 3.1 uses plexus-utils 3.0.x.
After some investigation it seems we could use a single version of this library, the compatibility from the version 1.5.15 to the latest 3.0.15 is very good. japi-compliance-checker reports only 1% of incompatible changes between 1.5.15 and 2.0.5, which seems to indicate the creation of the plexus-utils2 package wasn't necessary. To verify this I upgraded locally the libplexus-utils-java package to 2.0.6 and rebuilt the 75 reverse dependencies. Everything compiled fine. I pushed further and upgraded to 3.0.15. Again I have been able to build all the reverse dependencies. So if you agree I'd like to: - Upgrade the plexus-utils package from 1.5.15 to 3.0.15 - Update the 7 reverse dependencies of libplexus-utils2-java to use libplexus-utils-java instead - Request the removal of plexus-utils2 What do you think?
