Hello,
librome-java 1.0-1 supplied OSGi metadata inside jar META-INF/MANIFEST.MF.
These additional
fields were removed at 1.0-2 because of bug #585578. As I'm packaging an
Eclipse plugin that
has librome-java as its dependency and needs metadata for compilation, I'd like
to get
them back.
I reproduced the invalid header field error described in #585578 and found out
it was caused
by manifest fields with values longer than 72 bytes, that according to jar spec
should be
split into multiple lines. In such cases jh_manifest added an extra line break
immediately
after the attribute name, resulting in malformed manfest file.
After rebuilding the package with current version of javahelper in use, this
bug occurs no
more, so I think there should be no problem with re-enabling insertion of the
additional
fields into manifest.
Also I noticed that #585578 was fixed by removing jh_manifest from
debian/rules, but it seems
current javahelper always calls jh_manifest in the build process, so the change
has no effect
anymore. Because of this, rebuild of 1.0-2 package using the newest tools
should be enough
to get OSGi metadata back to manifest.
Thank you in advance
Jakub
