Bug#754935: O: scala

2014-07-17 Thread Stephen Nelson
This is possibly something that the Java team could adopt.

I'm certainly motivated to get the latest version of Scala in before the
freeze but I have less packaging experience than other members in the Java
team.

I'll have a look at what dependencies are needed in order to get it to
build offline in Debian. If you have any notes or work done so far please
share it.

Thanks.

 It is not, but thank you for catching this and reviewing WNPP bugs! :)

 libjackson-json-java is version 1.* of the JSON processoe by FasterXML
while I
 plan to package version 2.* which has been split into a number of
packages and
 should be packaged separately. In the light of this I will try to make it
more
 obvious that this is, in fact, Jackson2.

 Have a good day!

Thanks for packaging the latest version. I think it would be better to be
consistent on the naming according to the Debian Java standards [1] and
name it something like libjackson2-core-java.

I believe this is already packaged as libjackson-json-java. You could assist by 
packaging the latest version.
