Hi, I had some look into Mayam and noticed that while we can get rid of some binary JARs inside the package by prepackaged Debian libraries there is a fair amount left. These problematic binaries are:
clibwrapper_jiio.jar dcm4che-core-2.0.22.jar dcm4che-filecache-2.0.22.jar dcm4che-imageio-rle-2.0.23.jar dcm4che.jar dcm4che-net-2.0.22.jar derby.jar jai_codec.jar jai_core.jar jai_imageio.jar libclib_jiio.so nimrodlf-1.0.jar pdf-renderer-1.0.5.jar I did not made investigations for all these but it seems that those starting with dcm4che are all available with maven pom files at http://www.dcm4che.org/maven2/dcm4che/ So some dedicated Java packager should have no problem with this. For derby.jar there is at least an ITP (#617425) - perhaps we might ping the ITPer about the status. The jai* JAR sources can be found at http://code.google.com/p/mapmap/ I found nimrodlf.jar at http://personales.ya.com/nimrod/download-en.html and pdf-renderer at http://java.net/projects/pdf-renderer All projects above seem to be fine regarding licensing. I was not really lucky in finding the source for clibwrapper_jiio.jar and libclib_jiio.so (but perhaps this is not needed ??). So if somebody is interested in getting Mayam packaged it might be a good idea to start working on those prerequisites. The most useful target might be the dcm4che stuff. If it turns out that it would be too much work for the moment to get all this packages and we'd rather push Mayam into non-free for the moment that's probably a reasonable intermediate step to go - but I wanted to present the work needed to do first. Any volunteers? Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
