I second the proposal of Grzegorz: Put the jikes-* wrapper scripts in JVM packages, not in jikes to let jikes go in testing. 1° Why jikes not in testing: http://bjorn.haxx.se/debian/testing.pl?package=jikes 2° But at packages.qa: http://packages.qa.debian.org/j/jikes.html # 151 days old (needed 2 days) # jikes-classpath/arm unsatisfiable Depends: classpath # jikes-gij/hppa unsatisfiable Depends: libgcj4 | libgcj3 | libgcj2 # jikes-sablevm/hppa unsatisfiable Depends: sablevm (>= 1.0.5-1) # jikes-gij/mips unsatisfiable Depends: libgcj4 | libgcj3 | libgcj2 # jikes-kaffe/mips unsatisfiable Depends: kaffe # jikes-sablevm/mips unsatisfiable Depends: sablevm (>= 1.0.5-1) # jikes-gij/mipsel unsatisfiable Depends: libgcj4 | libgcj3 | libgcj2 # jikes-kaffe/mipsel unsatisfiable Depends: kaffe # jikes-sablevm/mipsel unsatisfiable Depends: sablevm (>= 1.0.5-1) 3° It's better a JVM depends on jikes only and not jikes (or jikes-* but it's the same source package) depends on 4 JVM. Also, note that this will maybe be solved by the Jan Schulz proposal (findjava), but it'll be after sarge release. Cheers, -- .''`. : :' :rnaud `. `' `-
