Package: libgcj7-dev
Version: 4.1.1-20
I have noticed that libgcj7-dev is saving the Java developmental files
into the C++ include folder.
Here is a list of examples of where they are being stored:
$ ls /usr/include/c++/4.1.2/java
applet awt beans io lang math net nio rmi security sql text util
$ ls /usr/include/c++/4.1.2/gnu/
awt classpath gcj java javax
$ ls /usr/include/c++/4.1.2/gcj/
array.h cni.h field.h javaprims.h method.h
$ ls /usr/include/c++/4.1.2/javax/
accessibility crypto management naming net print security sound
sql swing transaction
While I am not even sure if this is incorrect. I would like to make
three arguement on why it should not be in this directory
1) /usr/include/c++/* should be reserved for files in the
libstdc++6-4.1-dev and other std c++ development files.
2) libgcj7-dev does not depend on libstdc++
3) It does not follow policy with over C++ development headers (I.E Qt, mysql++)
One solution would be to have a /usr/include/java/ folder to store
these files in.
While I am aware that having the files here will not be a issue to
either C++ or Java, its not very uniform or consistence with other
developmental packages. Over all I can't find a agurement for keeping
the header files in this location. But if I am mistaken, or I am a
total idiot, please point it out why the java development headers
belong here.

This bug has been reported against an ancient version of gcc/g++/gcj/gij
(4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.5), that was removed from Debian so long ago that it
is no longer part of any supported release (including oldoldstable-lts).
It is assumed to be fixed (or no longer relevant) in newer releases and
therefore I'm closing this report now. If the problem is still
reproducible in the current version (gcc-5, gcc-4.9, gcc-4.8 or
corresponding g++/gcj), feel free to provide more information, reopen
and reassign this bug report.
