Package: libsvn-javahl
Severity: serious
Justification: Java policy 2.4
Hi,
According to the current java policy, section 2.4:
"Java libraries packages must be named libXXX[version]-java (without
the brackets), where the version part is optional and should only
contain the necessary part. The version part should only be used to
avoid naming collisions. The XXX part is the actual package name used
in the text below.
"Their classes must be in jar archive(s) in the directory
/usr/share/java, with the name
packagename[-extraname]-fullversion.jar. The extraname is optional
and used internally within the package to separate the different jars
provided by the package. The fullversion is the version of that jar
file. In some cases that is not the same as the package version."
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/java-policy/x105.html
In other words, if distributing the jar 'svn-javahl.jar', the package
should be named 'libsvn-javahl-java'. Though I can't help but wondering
about the value of the javahl part of the package name.
cheers,
Charles

This was fixed a long long time ago, my changelog even said so, but
apparently it never got closed. Perhaps that was back in the days
before BTS version tracking, when uploads to experimental merely tagged
bugs as 'fixed-in-experimental'.
