Hi,

Thanks for reporting this! Usually the tool reports such changes as "the method 
has been moved up type hierarchy to ...", but it failed in this case due to the 
lack of information about the java.lang.Object class in the analyzed archive. 
I've fixed the issue and regenerated reports for commons-collections.

Thank you.

New steganography application

[Tobias]

Hi all,

I'm searching for someone in the Debian community, who would appreciate a new 
easy-to-use steganography application in the Debian repositories.
It originated from a group project at our university and now we continue 
working on it. 
Our goal is to create a steganography application which is easy to use, even 
for people who know very little or nothing about steganography.
It's written in Java 8 and uses SWT as widget toolkit. 
Here is the project page: https://dev.stegosuite.org/Stegosuite/Stegosuite
Is there anybody who would like to package it?

Best regards,
Tobias

Is this based on Debian binary packages or upstream?

I wonder if we need a japi.debian.net service providing this for all packages.
