eclipse version in repository

2009-06-04 Thread Raphaël Vandon
hello, I saw that the version of eclipse in the repository of debian
unstable is the 3.2, while the current version available on the official
site is the 3.4. Is there any reason for this ?

Actually 3.5 should be out (in eclipse.org) real soon now :-)

The reason it is not in debian is that eclipse is notoriously hard to package
and the interested parties currently have no free time.

You are more than welcome to help though, I 'm happy to provide advice etc.

Actually im on the way of repackage it (for my needs) , but im way not
a debian developer.
What is the policy about eclipse plugins ? should they be in seperate
package or in the eclipse
currently im working only on the java part (since that is what i need ) .

This is not a problem, I am not a DD either. We have at least one DD though
willing to help with sponsoring etc if the technical problems are solved.

 package or in the eclipse

Unfortunately there is no official policy for that. It is one of the problems.
E.g., a possible issue is Equinox (the eclipse OSGi runtime). It would
be best if it were distributed separately (since a few people use it
standalone) but this makes maintainance harder.

For now a policy that splits eclipse to packages the same way it is done
for eclipse 3.2 is probably fine. Important plugins (like cdt/jdt) should
be installed in a place like /usr/share/eclipse/dropins, each plugin in
its own dir.

This avoids interoperability problems with eclipse P2 at least until a better
integration between apt/dpkg and P2 is developed.

 currently im working only on the java part (since that is what i need ) .

Well, the core and jdt are by far the hardest, so if you can solve this
it will be a big win already. You could look at Fedora's eclipse-build
and my eclipse-debian package for some ideas.

You could also look at the eclipse-ubuntu project. That one was the
most active last time I looked (I think).

HTH,

Bug#531917: antlr: FTBFS: Missing Build-Depends

2009-06-04 Thread Daniel Schepler
Package: antlr
Version: 2.7.7-11
Severity: serious
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-...@lists.debian.org

From my pbuilder build log:

...
ln -s libantlr-java debian/libantlr-java-gcj/usr/share/doc/libantlr-java-gcj
dh_nativejava -plibantlr-java-gcj
make[1]: Entering directory 
`/tmp/buildd/antlr-2.7.7/debian/libantlr-java-gcj/usr/lib/gcj'
/usr/bin/gcj -c -fsource-filename=/tmp/filedNq7JM -g -O2 -fPIC 
-findirect-dispatch -fjni antlr.jar.1.jar -o antlr.jar.1.o
make[1]: /usr/bin/gcj: Command not found
make[1]: *** [antlr.jar.1.o] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/tmp/buildd/antlr-2.7.7/debian/libantlr-java-gcj/usr/lib/gcj'
aot-compile: error: /usr/bin/make exited with code 2
dh_nativejava: aot-compile returned exit code 1
make: *** [binary-arch] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2

Other than adding gcj to the Build-Depends (which would tangle up the huge
mess of circular Build-Depends in Debian's Java packages even more), I
would have thought changing that line to:
  dh_nativejava -plibantlr-java-gcj -- --gcj=/usr/bin/gcj-4.3 \
--dbtool=/usr/bin/gcj-dbtool-4.3
should also work, but it doesn't seem to pass along those arguments to
aot-compile.  So I'm CCing the bug to the gcc-defaults (libgcj-common)
maintainers' list, to see if this is the intended behavior, and if this bug
is perhaps a more general problem that should be fixed in libgcj-common.
Maybe aot-compiler should be using the current default gcj-* instead of the
gcj symlink as its default.
