Bug#711212: ITP: libfastutil-java -- Java API providing type-specific maps, sets, lists and queues
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Andreas Tille ti...@debian.org * Package name: libfastutil-java Version : 6.5.4 Upstream Author : Sebastiano Vigna vi...@acm.org * URL : http://fastutil.di.unimi.it/ * License : Apache-2.0, LGP Programming Lang: Java Description : Java API providing type-specific maps, sets, lists and queues Fastutil extends the Java™ Collections Framework by providing type-specific maps, sets, lists and queues with a small memory footprint and fast access and insertion; provides also big (64-bit) arrays, sets and lists, and fast, practical I/O classes for binary and text files. . The classes implement their standard counterpart interface (e.g., Map for maps) and can be plugged into existing code. Moreover, they provide additional features (such as bidirectional iterators) that are not available in the standard classes. . Besides objects and primitive types, fastutil classes provide support for references, that is, objects that are compared using the equality operator rather than the equals() method. Remark: I have basically finished the lintian clean packaging and moved the debian/ dir to http://people.debian.org/~tille/packages/libfastutil-java/ In the packaging I used Debian Med team as maintainer which is motivated by the following reasons: 1. It is a precondition for one of the Debian Med targets (goby) as explained here https://lists.debian.org/debian-med/2013/02/msg00152.html 2. If I would stay the only Uploader it would make sense to keep it here because I'm watching this team very closely However, I honestly think that the packaging should rather be done inside the Debian Java team and I'm perfectly fine to move the package in their repository (I can cope with Git and SVN - whatever is prefered). I hope that ACLs are set for DDs so I can commit straight to this dir. Is there any document that describes things I should know about this team. The third option would be to move the package into Debian GIS Project pkg-grass-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org team because my basic motivation to create the package was rather not the precondition for goby but rather to update mkgmap (that's why bug #580170 is in CC). As a last resort I would use collab-maint (which would be the less prefered option for me). What do you think? In any case if you want to become an Uploader of the package and want to share the maintenance that's more than welcome.

There are other libraries depending on fastutil, it may have a wider usage in the future than your immediate need. I think that would make sense to put it under the Java Team umbrella so we can help and ensure its consistency with the other Java packages.

Hi Emmanuel, thanks for your review!

As far as I know svn-buildpackage is using tarballs there (but I personally do not use svn-buildpackage - it's just that we have some people in Debian Med team who really love the setting above. I do absolutely not mind. Feel free to change it - it is in svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/trunk/libfastutil-java now. ;-) If I do not hear anything from you I'll upload tomorrow with what I find in SVN.
