Hi all, I am the Debian package maintainer for Lucene, and I'm having build problems with 1.4.1. We are very close to a major Debian release (code named 'sarge'), and the window for changes is very small. Can someone please help me in the next day or two, otherwise Debian stable will ship Lucene 1.4-final for the next couple of years. It looks to me like the problem is in javacc generated code, and it's not obvious to me what to do.
For debian sarge or sid users out there who want to reproduce the build problem, download the lucene 1.4.1 source tarball, then: apt-get install devscripts apt-get source liblucene-java cd lucene-1.4 uupdate -v 1.4.1 ../lucene-1.4.1-src.tar.gz cd ../lucene-1.4.1 debuild -us -uc Cheers, Jeff ================= compile-core: [mkdir] Created dir: /tmp/lucene/lucene-1.4.1/build/classes/java [javac] Compiling 160 source files to /tmp/lucene/lucene-1.4.1/build/classes/java [javac] /tmp/lucene/lucene-1.4.1/src/java/org/apache/lucene/analysis/standard/StandardTokenizer.java:15: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : class Reader [javac] location: class org.apache.lucene.analysis.standard.StandardTokenizer [javac] public StandardTokenizer(Reader reader) { [javac] ^ [javac] /tmp/lucene/lucene-1.4.1/src/java/org/apache/lucene/analysis/standard/StandardTokenizer.java:24: cannot resolve symbol [javac] symbol : class IOException [javac] location: class org.apache.lucene.analysis.standard.StandardTokenizer [javac] final public org.apache.lucene.analysis.Token next() throws ParseException, IOException { [javac] ^ [javac] /tmp/lucene/lucene-1.4.1/src/java/org/apache/lucene/analysis/standard/StandardTokenizer.java:15: recursive constructor invocation [javac] public StandardTokenizer(Reader reader) { [javac] ^ [javac] 3 errors --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
