RFS: testng/6.8.7-1 [ITA]
Dear java packagers, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "testng" * Package name: testng Version : 6.8.7-1 Upstream Author : Cedric Beust * URL : http://testng.org * License : Apache-2.0 Section : java It builds those binary packages: testng - testing framework for Java To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/testng Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/testng/testng_6.8.7-1.dsc Changes since the last upload: Current version in Debian is almost 4 years old. So this is a major upgrade. I would be glad if someone uploaded this package into experimental for me.

Re: RFS: testng/6.8.7-1 [ITA]
Hi Eugene, Thank you very much for revamping the testng package. That was the only package I never managed to build. I haven't tested the package, but after looking at the source on alioth I have a few suggestions: * You should be able to avoid patching the pom by adding rules in debian/maven.rules * It would be nice to import the upstream source in Git with: git-import-orig --verbose --merge --pristine-tar testng_6.8.7.orig.tar.gz * The changelog should probably mention that you rewrote the packaging using maven-debian-helper and that you dropped all the previous patches. * You could use canonical URLs for the Vcs-* fields in debian/control to avoid a lintian warning. * I suggest compressing the source tarball with xz, mh_make will do that by default in the next release. The syntax for orig-tar.sh is: XZ_OPT=--best tar cJf $TAR --exclude '*.jar' --exclude '*.class' $DIR Emmanuel Bourg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-java-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Full source is available at https://github.com/cbeust/testng That's how most of the Git based packages work, unlike the SVN based packages. I think it's important to have consistent practices for the Java packages, this allows other maintainers to jump in and help quickly without adapting to each package peculiarities.

I've made some notes on what needs to be done to update to 7.3.1, which I've been able to build with OpenJDK-7. You can see those here: https://wiki.debian.org/Java/Netbeans I'll start to push all the packaging I've done to git.debian.org and add details to the wiki page. What then needs doing is some finalising of the packages and getting them sponsored. Unfortunately keeping up with Netbeans releases can be a challenge, primarily due to the number of dependencies, so having help would be much appreciated. If you feel you're able to devote some time to this then let me know which packages you feel like tackling, and maybe mark them on the wiki to de-conflict with others.

Hi. I did report the following bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=720684 which makes netbeans half way unusable. Should I write a referencing netbeans bug report?
