Hi, moving back to the list for some final advise. Markus has spent some time slices into netlib after upstream has basically said we are on our own. I'd like to decide now for myself whether we simply should stick to the version packaged in Debian (which would probably be sufficient for the purpose it was packaged for).

Yes, it was packaged and the whole effort I'm putting in netlib (and its predepends as well the packages netlib is a dependency for) is based on the fact that I was able to get rid of the non-free parts of f2c. > You probably need to add Maven artifacts to the package > but that should be doable with maven-repo-helper.

So what you want to tell me is for instance to package http://central.maven.org/maven2/com/github/fommil/netlib/core/1.1.2/core-1.1.2-sources.jar as say source package netlib-core-1.1.2 point a watch file to it and see whether even this part might fullfill all requirements I need for my final targets or whether I also need say: http://central.maven.org/maven2/com/github/fommil/netlib/native_ref-java/1.1/native_ref-java-1.1-sources.jar and package everything using maven-helper. I'm just trying to estimate my effort compared to simply stick what we have. > Hope that helps a little That's definitely a slight step forward but not fully sufficient to let me draw a final conclusion how to proceed. Thanks a lot for the time you've spent into this Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
