As long as you are randomly renaming the package, shouldn't you use the
upstream package name?
I would not call it randomly - it was a change to comply with java policy !
That would be "postgresql-jdbc" so the package
should be called libpostgresql-jdbc-java. That would also have the nice
side effect that people looking for "postgresql" or "jdbc" actually find
something rather than having to guess at Debian's arbitrary abbreviation scheme.
Well, I am open to suggestions and you are right that using upstreams name
would be better from our users pov. So what are you proposing ?
Currently the following programs rdepend on libpgjava:
rhdb-explain - you are the maintainer
libpostgis-java - RC buggy needs new upload anyway
And openoffice.org-base depends on libpg-java.
libpgjava is part of sarge and therefore a transitional package
as now exists needs to be kept. We can just rename libpg-java into
libpostgresql-jdbc-java.
Comments ?
Wolfgang
