I am looking into the packaging bits in pkg-java svn. I have following
questions.
1. Why are we trying to build CVS version instead of latest stable version?
2. The version number in the changelog says dfsg, but there is no
readme file justifying the dfsg string in version. I looked at
upstream source and didn't see any non-DFSG Free files in package.
3. How about changing the source package name to match the upstream
tarball name?
Please answers these questions as you get time. And I will do the
changes accordingly and try to find a sponsor for it.
Cheers,
Onkar
