Michael (mt), I pasted true changes (excluding references to "org.gjt.sp.jedit.bsh" instead of "bsh", comments and some StringBuffer that become StringBuilder) here [1]. Personally I wouldn't apply that changes to bsh sources to satisfy a jedit-only need. I would proceed in this way: bsh: add bsh-src binary creation jedit: - - remove Debian bsh sources (added to the rejected package [2]) - - add bsh-src as builddep - - apply jedit patch and build against patched bsh. - - switch to "public" package like bsh so if someone wanted to write a reflection/AOP patch, it would easily be done without asking. Would it be rejected again?
