It seem like a good place to discuss the state of the packaging, at least. :) <URL: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/openrocket > > Upstream agrees that the JOGL embedded class library for which they > can't point to source is a bad thing, and there's more or less a > commitment to work on that eventually... but, in typical Java > development style, since the current code "works", upstream's sense of > urgency on this is lower than mine. How is this different from the libjogl2-java package with home page <URL: http://jogamp.org >? The source seem to be available from <URL: https://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Jogamp_SCM_Repositories > pointing to <URL: https://github.com/sgothel/ >. > It's pretty clear that there's a split between those who would just > love to walk away from the Java code base, and those who feel too > heavily invested to walk away and, like me, worry about second system > syndrome effects here.

I am very unskilled in Java packaging, so not sure I can be of much help. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
