Bug#1013582: libapache-jena-java: Jena shell utilities are missing

[David Haller]

Package: libapache-jena-java
Version: 3.17.0-3
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: david.hal...@fau.de

Hello there,

the package includes the Java libraries of Jena only, but not their command
line utilities which I often use for testing and development.

Would it be possible to include them too? Maybe in a separate package, like
"libapache-jena-bin".

Best regards,
David Haller

Hello,

I believe you are referring to the apache-jena/bin subdirectory of the source
package tree. That should be doable. However I am not sure if all these scripts
will work correctly because we ship only a subset of all apache-jena artifacts
in Debian. In fact the package is currently just a dependency of openrefine.
Could you try to install those scripts into /usr/local/bin (for testing
purposes) and report back if they work as you would expect them to work when
you use libapache-jena-java from Debian? I would also call the binary package
apache-jena-bin and omit the lib prefix because this one is reserved for
libraries only. 

Regards,

Markus

On second thought, maybe we can just ship the shell scripts with libapache-
jena-java. It is an arch:all package anyway and space is not an issue here.

Hello,

yes, those are the scripts I meant. Unfortunately, they would need some 
tweaking as the classpaths are different in Debian than expected by 
upstream, the Jena libraries are in /usr/share/java while the scripts 
look in $JENA_HOME/lib/*.


Also, some scripts are badly named and conflict with other Debian 
packages, e.g. "utf8" is also present in fonty-rg.


Best regards,
David
