Hi Johan, I wonder what the right way of building the classpath from a list of packages is? I see that there are symlinks in /usr/share/java/ and it seems I have to hardcode paths to these? please have a look at the debian-java mailing list archives. You'll see that the classpath topic has be

Hi Philipp, Sorry, but 2.5.139 already violates this rule. The following .jar-files marked with * don't have a source in Debian (as far as I know), + is an older version of the one in Debian. If this is the case then the package seems to violate DFSG (see [0]) and should be included into the

2008-07-16 Thread Florian Grandel
Hi again, The JPackage people have the following solution: They include the JBoss patches into their source and produce two independent non-conflicting binary packages from the same source package: - one unpatched for general use (that goes into /usr/share/java) and - one for jbossas (which go

Question concerning patched jars

2008-07-16 Thread Florian Grandel
Hi everybody, in jbossas we have got lots of jars that are built from source by the JBoss people upstream with patches applied to them. So they are nearly the same as the ones we have in our own packages except for the patches which are needed for the jars to work with jbossas. The JPackage
