To build this package, we rebuild a JAR file then dh_nativejava in the build target of debian/rules so we need to keep all this libs in B-D.

So with this 3.0.2-5 upload, java-gcj-compat-dev or default-jdk-builddep were uninstallable on those arch because of a missing openjdk-6-jdk. I'm really sorry for all this garbage. I hope someone will sponsor my new 3.0.2-6 soon to revert this nasty issues. Sorry, I too missed that, but there still seems to be some problem.

Help with Kim package
Hello, I was working on #361876 Kim - Kde image menu RFP retitled as ITP. This package doesn't have any Makefile and has a single installation script install.sh which needs to be run as root to install the package. This install script gives three options : 1)Standard install 2)With plugin 3)Uninstall So, I wanted to ask what would be the best way of building this package. I have written a Makefile for this package, which does the work of this install script, but how do i give two options for install or do i just make with plugins as default, which i am doing currently. One more thing, this package has lot of binary files and lintian and linda give this warning for each of the binary files, W: kim: binary-without-manpage ..., which they should, because i haven't written any manpage. There are not many options for these binary files, and I think manpage for each of the binary file is not required. But still if manpage is a must, how can i write a common manpage for all the binary files. The sources to this package can be found at: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/~ae03b032/debian_packages/kim/ Thank You -8--8--8--8 Varun Hiremath 3rd Year Engg Student, Aerospace Department, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai, India --- Webpage : http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/~ae03b032 --- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

There can't be that much difference between a ticker for cricket scores and a ticker for football, rugby, Aussie rules, basketball or lacrosse scores. If you had sources for this data (or if the user could provide some), would kscoreticker be able to use them? What about if kscoreticker could get it's data stream via RSS ? It could be a news-ticker too. Some people would find it handy to have a freshmeat news ticker or /. or mainstream news from any of the dozens of online news sources. Is there a separate knews-ticker ? If things like this are planned for upcoming releases (i.e. within the foreseeable future), a name change shouldn't be necessary.
