Hi I am packaging a java library and ImageJ plugin that uses maven. It is dependent on ij.jar from net.imagej. In Debian, ij.jar is provided by the imagej package [1] but there is no pom.xml there even though there is one on maven central.
What happens is that imagej1 [2] makes use of ant and not maven. Its development scheme is a bit unorthodox in that commits are done daily and may not match any actual release. So the developers of imagej2 have a kind of fork of it. They get the actual releases, restructure it for maven, have commits for each release, and push this new release to maven central [3]. They call it ImageJA. So how to address this? I guess that I should add such pom.xml file to the existing imagej package. I could do that with the debian-med team but could someone give me any pointers? Or should something else be done instead? There is a bunch of ImageJ plugins that use maven and so would also be dependent on that pom file. Thank you Carnë [1] https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/imagej [2] https://github.com/imagej/imagej1/ [3] http://imagej.net/ImageJA
