Hi,
I have managed to get RXTX to compile with current versions of kaffe
which means, if I understand correctly, that it could be moved from
contrib into main.
Additionally, the attached diff fixes a couple of things that are
wrong with the 2.1.6-1 versions that is currently in contrib:
* Ship one jar file instead of individual classfiles in
/usr/share/java/repository
* Renamed binary package according to Java sub-policy (renamed
lib-rxtx-java to librxtx-java
* Fixed Build-Depends and Depends to include a real package
(kaffe-dev, kaffe) in order to shut up lintian
The patch should be applied to the upstream 2.1.6 sources that can be
found in contrib.
I have successfully tested this with a non-free Java PBX configuration
program[1] to the point that it tried to access the serial port (but
since I don't have any of the supported PBXes physically close to my
development machine, I'm not sure whether it would really have talked
to a connected PBX).
Could you plesase try if the fixed package compiles for architectures
other than i386 and give me feedback? Thanks.
Cheers,
-Hilko
