Would you mind filing an ITP for jackson-core2? I too need this library to satisfy a build dependency and had a short look at the upstream code. The main issue that prevented me from going forward for now was an issue with their dual-licensing in that they seem to only have a license for already built jars but nothing stating explicitly that the same licensing is valid for their source code. Did you resolve that issue already or should we (I can happily do that) contact upstream first and ask them to clarify their licensing. (best with a LICENSE in their tarball). It also looks as if the same issue holds true for the currently packaged libjackson-core-java, but I have to look into that in detail. Is your current packaging available somewhere? I am sorry to hear about the issues you ran into and I am very much looking forward to replies by people who are more experienced with Java packaging than I. That being said: I wouldn't mind taking a look at your attempt so far and might even be able to fix one or two things. Could the currently packaged libjackson-java-core serve as a good example? (assuming upstream didn't change their packaging that massively) -- Wolodja <debian@babilen5.org> 4096R/CAF14EFC 081C B7CD FF04 2BA9 94EA 36B2 8B7F 7D30 CAF1 4EFC
