Re: Bug#1031123: RFS: libcommons-collections4-java/4.4-1 [Team] -- Apache Commons Collections - Extended Collections API for Java



Hello min sun,

Hi, Hilmar Preuße, and tony:

Thanks for you guide!

I will keep the distribution tag "UNRELEASED" as it is for the sponsor.

which I also support. Some teams have put such practice in their policies, like in
	https://science-team.pages.debian.net/policy/#idm56



The debian/watch was modified to direct to apache archive site ,because:

1.Tag names from github are not well defined[1].

2.Some github release even introduces nonexisted files[2].

I think the apache site will do a little more strict check before archiving.

I uploaded again, please refer to mentors.debian.(Upload #2.)

I have just had a look. I am almost ready to upload, I just ask you to address the following, which can be read on [3]:
- insecure-copyright-format-uri
- silent-on-rules-requiring-root (add the related line in debian/control)
- uses-debhelper-compat-file (i.e. drop debian/compat and depend on debhelper-compat (= 13) instead) - also you could really drop debian/README.source and debian/maven.cleanIgnoreRules

I think it is really fine to care for this package now, but as we are in the soft freeze period, I would upload to experimental: I used japi-compliance-checker to see the differences between the jars in version 4.2-1 and in (your candidate) 4.4-1, and there has been a small number of (upstream) return types changes. The number of reverse-dependencies is too large to be tested with ratt at home.

Tell us/me once you are done.

Best,
