Hi Matthew, We here at the Eclipse Linux Tools project [1] have some ideas for integrating the Eclipse update manager with PackageKit. We also plan to improve our OProfile launching functionality by using ConsoleKit. We'd obviously like to use D-Bus for these things so your Java D-Bus implementation is what we would use.
As an eclipse.org project, in order for us to make use of Java D-Bus it has to be a part of the Eclipse Orbit project. Orbit is basically just a collection of "OSGi-ified" JARs that have been cleared be Eclipse legal for use by eclipse.org projects. In an ideal world the upstream project -- you, in this case -- would ship with OSGi metadata itself so Orbit wouldn't have to create potentially incorrect OSGi information. Have you ever considered adding OSGi metadata to your MANIFEST.MF file(s)? (Of course, as an eclipse.org project we will still need to get Java D-Bus cleared by legal but that's technically irrelevant :) Please let us know your thoughts. Take care, Andrew [1] http://www.eclipse.org/linuxtools _______________________________________________ linux-distros-dev mailing list linux-distros-dev@eclipse.org https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-distros-dev
