Dear Emmanuel,

Just $ sudo aptitude install maven or $ sudo apt-get install maven
install maven only, I meant the libraries and plugin like -

Bug#858561: maven needs to have a metapackage to install all the libraries

[shirish शिरीष]

Package: maven
Version: 3.3.9-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
There doesn't seem to be a metapackage to install all maven library
packages and have to install them manually which is time-consuming.

Could something be done about it ?

Bug#852678: groovy2: adequate reports obsolete conffile in groovy2, specifically groovy-starter.conf

[shirish शिरीष]

Package: groovy2
Version: 2.4.8-1
Severity: normal
User: debian...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: obsolete-conffile adequate

Dear Maintainer,
Adequate reports the following -

[$] adequate groovy2

groovy2: obsolete-conffile /etc/groovy2/groovy-starter.conf

Maybe you could use what pabs (Paul Wise) did in #815563, in that the
proper thing to do would be -

Use the dpkg-maintscript-helper support provided by dh_installdeb to
remove such similar obsolete conffiles on upgrade

Also https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-config-files

You can also see manpage of dh_installdeb vid debhelper package which
is the same thing.

I ran the same command as he did -

[$] pkg=groovy2 ; adequate $pkg ; dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}\n'
$pkg | grep obsolete

groovy2: obsolete-conffile /etc/groovy2/groovy-starter.conf
 /etc/groovy2/groovy-starter.conf 912972b0ab3197dc62f59f485332edde obsolete

Please fix the above.

Bug#771514: Is the state of affairs the same upstream ?

[shirish शिरीष]

Hi all,

While there were updates, there doesn't seem to be anything happening here.

I can see the warning still -

─[$] javafxpackager

javafxpackager has been renamed javapackager
The original file may be removed in a future release in lieu of javapackager.
Please update your scripts.

So it seems that there are still some bits missing.

Oops, not a programmer here. I mis-understood. I mis-read that you
would be making a release to experimental soonish.

So I'll wait.

I was browsing today and don't see it either in experimental or elsewhere.

tracker.debian.org/openjfx

I also viewed the git tracker to see if you might have uploaded it
there and not released but even there it doesn't seem to be IIUC -

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-java/openjfx.git/log/

Look forward to knowing your plans.

I would suggest to have a new package so people who are on java 8
aren't disturbed. While people who want to test out the java 9 and
openjfx 9 can look at that direction.

As we would be hitting full-freeze tonight, if you do go that way,
then hit experimental and see if you can make a release there.

While openjdk 9 would be available around the middle of the year from

Bug#648624: updates about liblwjgl-java please.

[shirish शिरीष]

Hi all,
Seems people have given up on it or something.

I downloaded libasm4-java and saw the changelog, it has been
constantly improving. Can't something about liblwjgl-java .

There are couple of games who use/need it.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/jewelhunt/

http://sourceforge.net/projects/jewelhunt/files/imp_city/r014/

These are two seperate games - jewelhunt and imp_city

Another one which use liblwjgl-java is :-

https://github.com/ImpalerWrG/Khazad

Bug#648624: Any updates gentleman as to how to go forward ?

[shirish शिरीष]

Respected Gentlemen,
It seems lwjgl has had two releases, one is the legacy 2.9.x series as
can be seen at

http://blog.lwjgl.org/lwjgl-2-9-2-released/

and the other new/shiny lwjgl 3.0.x rewrite series

See http://blog.lwjgl.org/welcome-to-lwjgl-3/

Can somebody package either one of them and push it to experimental ?

Bug#648624: Any updates on upgrading liblwjgl-java to version 1.9.1 ?

[shirish शिरीष]

Hi all,
Couple of months have passed. While I am subscribed to the bug, could
somebody tell if we would get a new enough version of libwjgl-java
library before jessie ?

@David, did you try to approach upstream and share with them the build
issues you had. Perhaps they might have some idea or are you waiting
for some newer version which will fix the build issue ?

Looking forward to the newer version.

what is remaining to be able to use apk (android package files) files in debian ?

[shirish शिरीष]

Hi all,
Is it possible to use android package files (apk) in debian or still
somethings are missing ? I'm talking in a sort of an emulator way on
the desktop. These are the android packages I have installed on my
system. I am basically interested in a foss rpg which is/was made for
android and wanna play on my desktop.
