We have a libsnappy-java version available in DebianMed [0], but a
specific release (certainly due to a package which needed this specific
release and upstream broke its API).
I do not know if we need to manage snappy by itself in DebianMed repo as
it has nothing related to bio/med but is only a dependency.

I have sent a patch to fix the bug on loading native library. However
this raises an other issue, it seems that Java lib is not matching
native lib on methods.
I have put details in the bug.

 Hello Andreas,
 
 If you're willing to migrate these to the pkg-java repo, I'll work on
 updating them and uploading them as Java Team packages.

I have migrated

   ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-java/libnetlib-java.git  and
   ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-java/libmtj-java.git

as well as injected the latest pristine-tar.  Previous pristine-tar info
is missing as well as all tags are lost.  I do not feel that the missing
tags is a real problem.  I'd volunteer to inject them manually in case
you would prefer this.

 Also, I've been meaning to send you a mail regarding libsnappy-java,
 since we have an RC bug there.  The last commit makes it appear that you
 were considering moving it debian-med in 2012.  Is that still the case?

I'll check and it would be fine to move it to pkg-java as well.

Thanks for your offer to help

 Andreas.

Help needed with updating some Java libraries (netlib-java, libmtj-java)

2014-08-28 Thread Andreas Tille 
Hi,

when checking my Maintainer dashboard dashboard I realised that the
watch file of netlib-java and libmtj-java became disfunctional and when
tracking down the issue I noticed that both projects moved from SF to
Github.  While I updated the URLs in SVN accordingly I noticed that the
Build system has changed as well which just crosses my (low) level of
Java competence (again).

Since both packages are definitely not really in the field of Debian Med
but just preconditions for some biological package (beast) I wonder
whether this might be the right point in time to move the package to
Debian Java.  I'd volunteer to inject the package into Debian Java Git
but in turn I would need some help (starting with netlib-java).  I have
the feeling that the amount of work for a skilled Java packager is low
(but I really would not regard myself as such a person).

BTW, the packages are hanging around in contrib since netlib depends
from f2j (at least the current version).  I'll send a separate mail to
f2j authors to try (again) to convince them to use a DFSG free license.

Kind regards

Andreas.

updating them and uploading them as Java Team packages.
