Package: libmsv-java
Version: 2009.1+dfsg1-4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
The file:
/usr/share/java/msv-rngconverter.jar
is intended to be a "runnable JAR" (it has a 'main' method), but as
distributed in the 'libmsv-java' 2009.1+dfsg1-3 and 2009.1+dfsg1-4 Debian
packages, the file cannot be run due to the 'Main-Class' attribute missing
from the MANIFEST.MF file within the JAR.
Here's the output that is produced when invoked with no additional arguments:
$ java -jar /usr/share/java/msv-rngconverter.jar
Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
/usr/share/java/msv-rngconverter.jar
Please consider applying the attached patch, which modifies the
'rngconverter/pom.xml' file to cause it to add the missing information.
When invoked with the patched version, the output is as follows:
$ java -jar /usr/share/java/msv-rngconverter.jar
Usage: RELAXNGConverter <schema filename/URL>
converts a schema written in various schema language to
the equivalent schema written in RELAX NG.
Thanks for considering the patch, and thanks for your work on Debian,
-Al

Description: Add 'Main-Class' to rngconverter JAR file manifest
The maven-jar-plugin configuration in rngconverter/pom.xml had the intention
of creating a runnable JAR file, but was not working due to an incorrect
organization of the XML elements. In particular:
+ the '<manifest>' elt needed to be within the '<archive>' elt
+ the '<addClasspath>' elt needed to be within the '<manifest>' elt.
