Hi, I have worked on the packaging of igv 2.6.3+dfsg, which is in
https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/igv This igv packaging still relies on its embedded jars. I have solved build issues related to gradle, another one linked to the current version of htsjdk (solves Grave bug on igv), and had to skip build-time tests which required a network access. You will see the remaining tests are quite verbose as they output information to stderr and stdout, but all are passing. I installed and ran the package on my computer (running Testing), it seemed to work fine. I have not packaged the most recent upstream version (2.8.10) as all upstream versions > 2.6.3 rely on jars that are downloaded from the internet at build time. It is thus very relevant to package the predependencies of igv -- which I have begun, two of them are awaiting sponsorship on Debian Java mailing list. Thanks in advance for looking at igv and sponsoring it when time permits, All the best, Pierre
