Thank you very, very much. https://packages.debian.org/source/unstable/jhove
Re: request for help: jhove
I've tried and can't figure out how to make this package either build at the current release, or update to latest release. This is one last desperate call for help. >jhove 1.6+dfsg-1 is marked for autoremoval from testing on 2018-05-14 > >It is affected by these RC bugs: >895761: jhove: FTBFS with java 9
Re: request for help: jhove
I'd love to actually update to the most recent upstream. The build system switched from ant to maven, and I am completely unfamiliar with it. First, I got a fatal error about not finding org.sonatype.oss:oss-parent:pom, so I tried deleting that section of the pom.xml. Then the build can't find jacoco-mavin-plugin is missing. That's where I'm currently stuck. control/ Build-Depends: javahelper, debhelper, maven-debian-helper, libmaven-shared-utils-java, quilt, cdbs, libjacoco-java Build-Depends-Indep: default-jdk rules/ JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java %: dh $@ --with javahelper

request for help: jhove
I'm the Debian package maintainer for jhove, which is an image validator and really useful for libraries and other cultural heritage institutions. It is about to get kicked out due to bug #895761. The right thing to do is update the jhove to the current upstream version. However, I haven't touched Java packaging for a very long time, and since then the world has changed. My first attempt went nowhere. Is someone willing to help out? I'm appreciative of assistance at any level: advice, patches, NMU, package adoption. Thank you in advance.
tomcat webapps permissions
Hi Barry other Debian-Java folks,
I was just playing with the demo web application that comes in
liblucene-java-1.4.3-4. This is one of those .war things and it
requires adjusting some Tomcat permissions for it to work. Is this
best left to README.Debian, or should the liblucene-java package
somehow automatically adjust Tomcat permissions?
Cheers,
Jeff
= possible future README.Debian for liblucene-java package
Lucene for Debian
-
The Javadoc(TM) for Lucene can be found at
/usr/share/doc/liblucene-java-doc/docs/index.html
The Lucene demo applications are included in the liblucene-java
package. It includes the following files:
/var/lib/tomcat4/webapps/luceneweb.war
/usr/share/java/lucene-demos-x.x.jar
The demonstration applications require additional configuration to be
used. To configure the demonstration command-line applications for
Lucene, see the documentation and source code walthrough
/usr/share/doc/liblucene-java-doc/docs/demo.html
/usr/share/doc/liblucene-java-doc/docs/demo2.html
For information on configuring the Lucene web application to be run in
a Java(TM) web container such as Tomcat, see documentation and
source walkthough.
/usr/share/doc/liblucene-java-doc/docs/demo3.html
/usr/share/doc/liblucene-java-doc/docs/demo4.html
The Lucene web application looks for Lucene index data in
/opt/lucene/index, although we may change this location in a future
version of the Debian pacakge. If you want to run on a stock Debian
tomcat4 configuration, you will need to add extra permissions to the
grant {...} section of /etc/tomcat4/policy.d/04webapps.policy
// Allows luceneweb demo to work
permission java.util.PropertyPermission disableLuceneLocks, read;
permission java.util.PropertyPermission java.io.tmpdir, read;
permission java.util.PropertyPermission org.apache.lucene.*, read;
permission java.io.FilePermission /opt/lucene/index, read;
permission java.io.FilePermission /opt/lucene/index/*, read;
permission java.io.FilePermission /var/lib/tomcat4/temp, read,write,delet\

Re: tomcat webapps permissions
~I am inclined to say this should be left to README.Debian, since not all people who install liblucene-java and liblucene-java-doc may want such an intrusive demo app installed by default. That's certainly possible, we can start with the README.Debian. However, I'm thinking of tackling nutch (www.nutch.org) so I'm still interested in how to do ths sort of thing automatically. and have users install it manually. In my experience, users need all the help they can get. Cheers, Jeff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
seeking co-maintainer for Lucene
The Lucene package is in pretty good shape. * No non-wishlist bugs * 100% lintian clean * Reasonably packaged (self tests and everything) * Up to date with upstream * Popular according to popularity-contest * Not that complicated This would be a great package to have in main. I'm looking for a co-maintainer interested in helping it get there. If you are interested, please send an email (with or without patch!) to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you are not (yet) a Debian Developer but are interested in tackling this problem, great! This is probably a good opportunity for someone to get their feet wet with Debian/Java packaging. Cheers, Jeff [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=272295
lucene 1.4 - main
Hi all, I've just upload lucene 1.4-2, and packaged it so it does its unit tests on build. I'd really like to get it in main in time for the sarge release - can someone please help? I'm pretty new to Debian-Java packaging and worried about not figuring this out in time. Either advice or an NMU would be very welcome. Cheers, Jeff http://packages.qa.debian.org/l/lucene.html
peer review on Debian Lucene 1.3 package
I made an attempt to package Lucene 1.3 for Debian, to help update the existing liblucene-java package in contrib. This is my first time ever working with a Debian Java package, and I'm finding parts of it fairly confusing - especially some of the fields in the Debian control file. (Does the package go in main? What are the correct dependencies/build dependencies? etc.) Could someone with more debian-java experience please review? http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=247638 http://www.jab.org/lucene Also: Okamoto-san, what are your plans regarding #247638? Do you want a non-maintainer upload (NMU) ? Cheers, Jeff
