Meanwhile the upstream maintainer moved from SF to GitHub: https://github.com/IDRSolutions/maven-OpenViewerFX-src Currently there is no name issue because there is no name. I can managed the downloading and the version checking with the recent uscan (version 4) [thanks to Paul Wise]: I emitted an issue about this lake of tag, still in progress: https://github.com/IDRSolutions/maven-OpenViewerFX-src/issues/3 > > Since openviewerfx is an application, you must provide some sort of > wrapper to launch the Java app. You can either use java-wrappers (See > example [1] and [2]) or your package should depend on jarwrapper. I am not sure about that because OpenViewerFX is mainly a library. Nevertheless, there are some samples: I will have a look. This issue is minor compare to the building failure. > > debian/control: > > Please use https for the Vcs-Browser field.
