To my great surprise, when I tried building the swig2.0 packages with
B-D: default-jdk removed and "with_java" set to something else in the
rules file, it turned out that SWIG builds just fine, and that there
are
absolutely no differences, none at all, in the generated binary
packages. As it happens, the SWIG configure script checks for Java,
but
then nothing ever uses the values, nothing builds anything
Java-related,
nothing even writes the values to installed files.
Most of the build dependencies of SWIG are only required for running the
test suite. Unfortunately, the configure script configures all stuff for
the test suite as well and there is no way to run the test suite out of
the source tree.
It would make sense to drop most of the build dependencies for the
target languages, including python, ruby, guile, chicken, racket, etc.
To have the test suite run automatically it would be preferable to use
adt-run with only the test-suite, which is included in the swig-examples
package. However, this requires changes to the upstream build which I
did not get around to do so far.
Let's see when I can get some Debian time...
Greetings, Torsten
