Re: [Bio-linux-dev] Bringing the Artemis package officially into Debian
Hi Afif, Tim.
Have you contacted the team at Sanger developing Artemis ? They are
almost certainly happy to help out with any upstream issues you might have.

In 2014 I talked to him briefly about it and I had a look myself. Came
to the conclusion it was definitely do-able, especially with recent work
of the Debian Java team packaging most libraries. But neither of us had
the time and inclination to work on it.
:q - Jalview's .deb needs a refresh too - our recent release has whole
new set of headaches, so I'm interested in hearing the latest with this.
I try to make proper source packages where possible, and to commit my
work to Alioth, but some (mainly Java) packages have defeated me. As
well as Artemis, there is
Tablet (https://ics.hutton.ac.uk/websvn/listing.php?repname=tablet),
you might find Tablet falls into non-free.
Cytoscape (https://github.com/cytoscape/cytoscape),
mvn. {wails}.. probably non-free too.
RStudio (https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/)
There should be significant interest from other deb/foss-sci in
packaging RStudio. No clue as to their build system.
and of course the infamous Taverna Workbench
(http://taverna.incubator.apache.org/download/code/).
mvn build. probably non-free due to the heavy jar dependency overhead.
I should probably go check the jpkg list now to see what's changed...
but Tim - has anything advanced re maven based builds ? Are they still
as painful to work with as they were in 2014 ?
