I admit I love your explanation since it gives me a slight tiny bit of
understanding. In principle I'd prefer you commit those patches right
to Git for the very simple reason that our edit history has the correct
names of people who did the actual changes.
The Java part seems to build. Now I'm stumbling upon a strange
I: pybuild base:217: python3.8 setup.py config
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 28, in <module>
from setuptools import find_packages
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/setuptools/__init__.py", line 8, in <module>
import _distutils_hack.override # noqa: F401
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_distutils_hack'
E: pybuild pybuild:352: configure: plugin distutils failed with: exit code=1: python3.8 setup.py config
dh_auto_configure: error: pybuild --configure -i python{version} -p 3.8 returned exit code 13
error - which needs to be investigated tomorrow (except somebody might
beat me which is always prefered).
Kind regards and thanks a lot for your Java patches
Andreas.
