RFC: docbook-xsl-saxon (Java extensions for use with DocBook XML stylesheets (Saxon))
x-post to debian-java, debian-mentors and pkg-java-maintainers Hi, I'm building docbook-xsl-saxon, a Java package, that provides docbook-xsl related extensions. For those interested in the packaging files, see http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/debian-xml-sgml/packages/docbook-xsl-saxon/trunk/debian/?rev=0&sc=0 I receive these informational objects from lintian: I: docbook-xsl-saxon source: build-depends-without-arch-dep ant I: docbook-xsl-saxon source: build-depends-without-arch-dep java-gcj-compat-dev Now I'm unsure, if lintian is right here. The clean target is defined in an ant makefile (build.xml). So ant and java are both used in the clean target. To my understanding of Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep, I have to list at least ant in Build-Depends, not in Build-Depends-Indep. I'm not sure about java-gcj-compat-dev, because java-gcj-compat provides the java binary. The package builds fine with kaffe and gcj-java-compat-dev. BTW: Do both use ecj to compile the source? If yes, where is the difference, if I use gcj-java-compat-dev or kaffe as build-dependency? I'm sorry for the questions, but this is my first Java package and I'm trying to learn more about Java packaging for Debian. Please split answers and send them to the "right" list if you want. I'm subscribed to all 3 lists, this posting is sent to. Regards, Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In this case it wouldnt have helped. The old jsch package contained a file debian/libsch-java.links with a hardcoded link. I removed that file, tested package and all worked. Then I did an svn up (which made the file reappear), did the final build and uploaded. I agree that a helper like dh_installjar would be really nice.
