The build depends is for j2sdk1.4 (i.e. Blackdown.) 'j2sdk1.4' is virtual package which is provided by 'sun-j2sdk1.4', 'blackdown-j2sdk1.4' and 'ibm-j2sdk1.4' all of which can be created with the help of 'make-jpkg' from 'java-package'. So the Build-Depends seem to allow the use of 'sun-j2sdk1.4'. Anyway, the package also does not compile with the j2sdk1.4 from Blackdown or IBM. Something seems to be missing here. netscape.javascript.JSObject used to be in the Java plugin but apparently Sun has dropped it. I know next to nothing about Java but if you can figure out a workaround that would be great. I googled a bit, but unfortunately I could not yet find any useful hint where to get 'netscape.javascript.JSObject', sorry. Why did you close #304208? Can you compile 'usermin-contrib'? I think that it is a bug if a source package cannot be compiled. Even if the package is from 'contrib', there should be at least a description of a working procedure to build the package. If external files are necessary to build a package, it should also be specified how to get those files. Am I wrong here? What is the general opinion on this?

Hmm...
$ apt-cache search j2sdk
j2re1.4 - Blackdown Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition
j2sdk1.4 - Blackdown Java(TM) 2 SDK, Standard Edition
$ dpkg-query --showformat=\${version}\n --show j2sdk1.4
1.4.2.01-1
(This is on an uptodate sid box.)

It was part of the old Netscape Java SDK. It was included in the Java
Plugin and afaik still is on Blackdown anyway.
$ jar tf /usr/lib/j2se/1.4/jre/lib/plugin.jar | grep
netscape/javascript/JSObject
netscape/javascript/JSObject.class
Why did you close #304208? Can you compile 'usermin-contrib'?
I was able to on Jan 30, when I built the package.
I think that it is a bug if a source package cannot be compiled.
Oh definitely. The question is why can I do it and you can't?

The question is why can I do it and you can't? My fault, it was a problem with my setup. I have 4 different j2sdk versions installed in parallel and I did not make the correct changes to debian/rules to make the compilation work with one of them. I tried it a few more times and finally managed to compile the package by just changing the classpath and the javac command in debian/rules to $(JAVA_HOME)/bin/javac -classpath $(JAVA_HOME)/jre/lib/plugin.jar [...] and pointing $(JAVA_HOME) to the appropriate directory.

Can someone confirm for me which jdks include netscape.javascript.JSObject? (it should be in javaplugin.jar) And if none of them do any longer, what should I do? If I'm going to do an upload anyway, could someone look at bug #279667? I can confirm it doesn't work under IE but I have no idea why. -- Jaldhar H.
