Bug#622324: Packaging of JLM harder than expected



Hello,

this is a status report on the packaging of JLM, so that the bug isn't
wrongly detected as dormant.

Things moved forward upstream, and as usual in Java, we added a bunch
of dependencies alongside. The unpackaged dependencies are now:

* twitter4j (ITP #613297): Java implementation of twitter 
  Unpackagable because of licensing issues.
  But this is an optional dependency that a debian patch could remove
* libsmack (ITP #640873): Easy to use Java XMPP client library
  waiting for the next upstream release that will fix a little
  licencing issue before uploading 
* JUNG (RFP #368931): Java Universal Network/Graph Framework
  That one is problematic: JLM really depends on it and it's not
  packaged yed. I don't feel like packaging it myself, it's too large
  for me. No idea of how I'll deal with it.
* Apache Http Components (no ITP/RFP yet?)
  This one is optional and could probably be cutted out (but it means
  that we won't post to either twitter nor identica from Debian)

So, JUNG is the real show stopper here :(

Bye, Mt.
