Already read it on debian-java but don't know what to do at the moment... maybe ask the Debian Maintainer: Ean R.

Hi Ricky, I've CC:ed Arnaud, as he's very active in the debian-java community. Ricky Clarkson wrote: Er, I found this on the debian-java mailing list and thought you guys might be interested.

This was discussed in the last Java RC bug list on this list. well, it's been marked to be removed for quite a while now. Unfortunately, no kaffe 1.1.x package has ever made it into testing so far, due to bugs during the build on some platforms. While some are getting fixed, others pop up ;) I assume the reason it's being marked [remove] is a security bug against an old version (1.0.5). That one was fixed, but unfortunately the fix didn't build anymore on some platforms. To make a long story short, I hope that the upcoming 1.1.2 will finally make it past testing, as it should fix the huge compilation issues almost everyone not using i386-linux or i386-freebsd2 had. To cite debian's bug tracker: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?which=src&data=kaffe&archive=no&pend-exc=pending-fixed&pend-exc=fixed&pend-exc=done&sev-inc=critical&sev-inc=grave&sev-inc=serious Serious policy violations - outstanding (3 bugs) * #197617: kaffe_1:1.0.5e-1(m68k/stable/poseidon): FTBFS, missing build-dep Package: kaffe; Severity: serious; Reported by: Stephen R Marenka <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tags: woody; 111 days old. Needs Ean to add a dependency to the package apparently, so that it can build again. * #205327: kaffe_1:1.1.1-2: FTBFS: missing terminating character Package: kaffe; Severity: serious; Reported by: Bdale Garbee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tags: help, patch; 52 days old. Fixed in current kaffe CVS, I hope. Except for the crash during compilation of class library on alpha, which needs someone on alpha-linux to hack it back into shape. * #208025: kaffe: man page misplaced (under /usr/lib/kaffe) Package: kaffe; Severity: serious; Reported by: "Aaron M. Ucko" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tags: patch; 35 days old. Debian specific bug, a patch is there. So it's not as bleak as it seems. ;) It would be great if the debian developers could get an updated 1.0.5 out of the door, and then proceed to wrap up 1.1.2 when it's out. cheers, dalibor topic ___ kaffe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://kaffe.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kaffe
