Package: groovy2 Version: 2.2.2+dfsg-3 Followup-For: Bug #747817 Hi there.
Would it be possible to get a newer version of groovy in the archive? Apparently, the last stable version of groovy is 2.3.7 (but I may be wrong) and it includes some features that seem quite interesting, like the vastly faster JSON parser (claimed to be 1 order or magnitude!) and the @TailRecursive annotation. Even if it is not possible to make it past the freeze, a newer version landing in unstable would be very nice to have. Thanks in advance for all the amazing work of the Java team, Rogério Brito. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (250, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf-8, LC_CTYPE=pt_BR.utf-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages groovy2 depends on: ii antlr 2.7.7+dfsg-6 ii default-jre [java6-runtime] 2:1.7-52 ii default-jre-headless 2:1.7-52 ii ivy 2.3.0-3 ii junit4 4.11-3 ii libasm4-java 5.0.3-1 ii libbsf-java 1:2.4.0-5 ii libcommons-cli-java 1.2-3 ii libcommons-logging-java 1.2-1 ii libjansi-java 1.4-3 ii libjline2-java 2.11-2 ii libqdox-java 1.12-1 ii libservlet2.5-java 6.0.41-3 ii libxstream-java 1.4.7-2 ii openjdk-7-jre [java6-runtime] 7u71-2.5.3-1 Versions of packages groovy2 recommends: ii ant 1.9.4-3 ii ant-optional 1.9.4-3 pn libgpars-groovy-java <none> ii libjcommander-java 1.35-1 ii testng 6.8.8-2 Versions of packages groovy2 suggests: pn groovy-doc <none> -- no debconf information -- Rogério Brito : rbrito@{ime.usp.br,gmail.com} : GPG key 4096R/BCFCAAAA http://cynic.cc/blog/ : github.com/rbrito : profiles.google.com/rbrito DebianQA: http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=rbrito%40ime.usp.br __ This is the maintainer address of Debian's Java team <http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-java-maintainers>.
