Apache Commons packaging question



Hi all,

I thought about packaging the Apache Commons Math Library[1] which I use
regularly. I do have a some question though and would like to ask you
for your opinion on that:

1. Other commons source packages seem to be renamed to libcommon-*-java.
Do all commons packages do this? Is there a kind of agreement on this?

2. The commons-math tarball ships three jars containing the class files,
source files and documentation, respectively. Is it OK to just put them
in the Debian package (as they are) or should I extract the source and
rebuild a Debian source package from that? (The tarball is 4.5 MB large,
extracted sources are 2.3 MB, tarred+gzipped 270 KB.)

3. Is the above case known from other commons libraries? I'd be thankful
for a pointer to a package that I could have a look at.

Or is there no need for this library at all?

Best regards
Manuel
