Hi, I have come across with jabref-2.3.1
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/jabref which was automatically pulled from debian since debian does not have icedtea, it depends on sun-java, which is non-free and therefore jabref is now in multiverse. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jabref/+bug/194509 I have fixed this problem by building jabref with icedtea-java7-jdk (currently in Ubuntu Universe, but not in Debian). Also I have already uploaded the updated package to REVU http://revu.tauware.de/ but they will not review my package now due to FeatureFreeze. All I've changed is in the control file, I added icedtea-java7-jdk to the build dependency and icedtea-java7-jre as an alternative dependency to sun-java6. Now this package builds and runs in my system. Linda also produced no complaints. Will my package be eligible for FeatureFreezeException since I only fix this small debian/control bug? There is nothing dependent on jabref and will not screw up other things. All it changes is that it now agrees to install in a purely free system without sun-java. Also in the future, what is the proper way to make FeatureFreezeException requests? Thanks for your help!
