Package: lintian Version: 1.23.21 Severity: normal When a package using cdbs and ant runs its clean rule, it looks like this:
cd . && /usr/lib/kaffe/bin/java -classpath /usr/share/ant/lib/ant.jar:/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-launcher.jar:/usr/share/java/servlet-2.3.jar:/usr/lib/kaffe/lib/tools.jar -Dant.home=/usr/share/ant org.apache.tools.ant.Main -Dcompile.debug=true -Dcompile.optimize=true -Dbuild.compiler=jikes -buildfile build/build.xml clean I don't know what ant does internally, but the safest assumption is that all these components are at least referenced. That means that all these tools are needed in Build-Depends: ant kaffe jikes libanything-java and equivalent alternatives. The strict interpretation of policy would then force me to write all build dependencies in Build-Depends. This is a bit silly but I don't see a way around it. Lintian needs to be adjusted to this though. I'd also be happy to make adjustments to cdbs if anyone sees possibilities. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
