Bug#626243: jchart2d for Debian



Hi Achim,

I am currently in the process of packaging jchart2d for Debian and I have
already created a proper Debian package. I have one question and would like
to make one suggestion:

I have used

http://sourceforge.net/projects/jchart2d/files/jchart2d/sources/jchart2d-eclipse-project-3.2.2.zip/download

as the source tarball for the Debian release of jchart2d. Sourceforge has version 3.2.2 but maven
claims to provide a newer version, 3.3.2

http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/sf/jchart2d/jchart2d/3.3.2/

Which one is the latest release of jchart2d?

I have managed to compile jchart2d from source with jchart2d-eclipse-project-3.2.2.zip but the
source tarball contains pre-compiled jar files and external libraries. Since those libraries
are shipped without source code, I was forced to remove them from the tarball. It would be great
if you considered to release a source only tarball of jchart2d in the future, so that we could
package pristine versions of jchart2d. More information about this topic are available here:

Best regards,

Markus
