Hello all, I want to be clear about installation structure of findbugs.
The original proposal was: (please pay special attention on /usr/share/java/findbugs/* files) --- /usr/bin/findbugs /usr/share/applications/jpackage-findbugs.desktop /usr/share/doc/findbugs /usr/share/doc/findbugs/LICENSE.txt /usr/share/doc/findbugs/README.txt /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design/DecouplingFromBCEL.txt /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design/VisitingAndCaching.txt /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design/architecture /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design/architecture/Makefile /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design/architecture/architecture.tex /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design/architecture/attention.pdf /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design/architecture/attention.svg /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design/architecture/mkdep.pl /usr/share/doc/findbugs/design/eclipse findbugs plugin features.sxw /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4 /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/addMessages /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/computeBugHistory /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/convertXmlToText /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/copyBuggySource /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/defectDensity /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/deprecated /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/deprecated/bugHistory /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/deprecated/unionBugs /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/deprecated/unionResults /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/deprecated/updateBugs /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/fbwrap /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/filterBugs /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/findbugs /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/listBugDatabaseInfo /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/mineBugHistory /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/printAppVersion /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/printClass /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/rejarForAnalysis /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/setBugDatabaseInfo /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/unionBugs /usr/share/findbugs-1.3.4/bin/xpathFind /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/findbugs.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/findbugs.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/findbugs.png /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/annotations-1.3.4.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/annotations.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/asm3-commons.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/asm3-tree.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/asm3.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/bcel5.3.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/dom4j.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/findbugs-1.3.4.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/findbugs-ant-1.3.4.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/findbugs-ant.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/findbugs.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/findbugsGUI-1.3.4.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/findbugsGUI.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/jaxen.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/jcip-annotations.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/lib/jsr-305.jar /usr/share/java/findbugs/plugin /usr/share/java/findbugs/plugin/coreplugin.jar /usr/share/pixmaps/findbugs.png --- So should I change the section to: /usr/share/lib/java/annotations-1.3.4.jar /usr/share/lib/java/annotations.jar /usr/share/lib/java/asm3-commons.jar ... /usr/share/lib/java/findbugs-1.3.4.jar etc. plus /usr/share/lib/java/findbugs.jar -> /usr/share/lib/java/findbugs-1.3.4.jar Won't be there clashing with jars from other components?
