No misunderstanding, I think, just my small outrage at the assumption that I
was packaging something written in Java :)

Yeah, it's probably the best way, portably. But it also seems to make the
point of a junit deb quite moot, from an individual Java developer's
perspective.

This is ok with me.

I think there is some misunderstanding here :)
Onkar suggests some structure like this in *your* project :
* build.xml : use ${lib.dir}/junit.jar
* build.properties : define lib.dir=lib/
* lib/junit.jar : your own JUnit jar
(with all that your project will be portable accros distro and OS)
Given that, Onkar said that, if some DD wants to package *your* project,
it will either :
#1 use an override to set "lib.dir=/usr/share/java/"
#2 use a tool like CDBS to set ant classpath via DEB_JARS
But maybe you're working on an internal/non-free-software project and have
no need for Debian packaging :)
FYI, Ant upstream authors recommends [1] to use attribute for
task instead of relying on Ant Classpath.
So, to conclude on this :
- You may use an explicit junit.jar (using properties or classpath as your
prefer)
- I'll not restore this link to /usr/share/ant/lib/
- I'll add a NEWS.Debian about this in next upload

I believe we are talking in context of Debian. Since we were talking
about the installation of junit4 and ant in Debian.
And the 1st solution I provided (which you quoted here) can apply to
any package maintainer. Overriding ant properties is a generic thing,
nothing specific to Debian.

How about specify the relative path like "${lib.dir}/junit.jar" so
that lib.dir can be overridden by the package maintainer in the
debian/rules.
Also with cdbs you can specify DEB_JARS which simply contains names of
libraries. The jar files will be looked for in a specific directory
i.e. /usr/share/java.

But how many have both installed at the same time? In my opinion, there shouldn't be any symlinks in ant lib directory for files that have nothing to do with ant. This unexpectedly modifies the default classpath for ant. It takes lot of time to hunt down build failures caused by such links. Fox example, velocity package was installing links to 3 libraries in ant lib directory. One of them was jdom0. And this caused problem for building packages which needed jdom1. Please do not add the link again. Onkar -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

Yes, it's a mistake. I missed this symlink during migration to "Maven-Repo-Helper". BTW, I think there was a classpath conflict between : /usr/share/ant/lib/junit4.jar (4.7) and /usr/share/ant/lib/junit.jar (3.8.7) Both provides junit.* classes. Are you sure having both of them auto-loaded by Ant is the right thing to do ?
