Hi,
I may be wrong; but I think I experienced this issue not because of
the case of the jar, but because of the case of the pom installed by
maven-repo-helper.
In particular, the fix was only [1] to change
debian/libaxmlrpc-java.poms like this
-pom.xml --usj-name=aXMLRPC
+pom.xml --usj-name=axmlrpc
Moreover, I now use mh_make to build my dependency aXMLRPC (instead of
java_helper + maven-repo-helper). It builds a jar which is not in
lowercase; but I can run mh_make successfully afterwards.
By the way, quick question -since I submitted a RFS [2] for axmlrpc,
and got not reply yet-: should I fix my package in order to produce a
jar with a lower case name? (I read the java packaging policy, but
could find an answer there).
Regards,
Guillaume
