Re: Netbeans Package

[Andrew Ross <andrew@rossfamily.co.uk>]

Now I've got most of the core of Netbeans building OK I've been having a
look at what it would take to enable the remaining modules.

I've been trying to capture things on the Debian wiki at:
http://wiki.debian.org/Java/Netbeans

There's a few modules that could be enabled relatively easy. I've
packaged version 1.0 of swingx as a separate package libswingx1-java
based on the existing libswingx-java package - I just need the package
to be sponsored. This would enable building of the db.* packages which
would normally be included in the main distribution.

apisupport.feedreader would also normally be in the standard
distribution, and the only missing dependency is rome-fetcher.

Javascript support could perhaps be enabled if the Rhino package could
build a -src package containing all the java source (which would then
get patched to create a netbeans specific version during the build process).
