Java AWT for Debian?
Hi all
Regarding my recently packaged "webCDwriter" [
http://wwwhomes.uni-bielefeld.de/jhaeger/webCDwriter/ ], i have found *the*
problem: It needs AWT to be compiled....
This has not been a problem before, since upstream includes an already
compiled and signed applet in JAR format... yet
Now i have mostly solved every bug found during my own testing phase and
repackaged it almost completely ( again! ) -- splitting it into 4
subpackages from the previous 2-- i must solve the problem that in won't
compile in Debian ( Unless i make the webcdcreator a binary-only package --
sources to the applet are available in the source package nonetheless )
I tried with gcj-3.2 + libpja-java , to no avail
Eclipse packages are currently br0ken in unstable
The program was designed for jdk-1.4
Any suggestions as to how to make it compile?
Shall i just forget about it and let it be just an architecture-independent
binary-only package ( this implies including the upstream-precompiled JAR
within the source package ) ?
After reading the license at Sun's JDK download pages, i fully understand
there is *no way* in which this license can be made compatible with DFSG
and hence be packaged. Any alternatives?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
J.L.
