Better have a working one in non-free than only a non-working one. > In fact, looking more closely at it, upstream has stopped bundling useful jars after version 2.6.3 (last upstream version is 2.8.10, current Debian-packaged one is 2.4.17). We currently do not have the right libs in Debian to package a version after v2.6.3. I think I will thus go back to v2.6.3 and package it, it will still be a progress, it is just 1 year old, and it will lead to a working package, still in non-free. Medium-term work should then allow to get the right dependencies packaged and hopefully to handle the last upstream version. > >> All the best, > > Same to you > > Andreas. > > Best regards, Pierre
