Package: javahelper
Version: 0.14
Severity: important

I believe there is a maximum line length for entries in the MANIFEST file. 
(http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/jar/jar.html).
Currently javahelper when creating classpath entries doesn't wrap lines. It 
should wrap lines. 
You can probably wrap lines with something like:

  sed -i -r -e 's|^\(.{72}\)|\1\n |g' MANIFEST

at the time the MANIFEST is written.

I had the impression that this was going to be fixed a month or so ago but it 
still appears to be broken.

regards,

Richard.
