Thomas Koch commented on HBASE-2383:
------------------------------------

Debian seems to miss some dependencies of the hbase stargate contrib. I'm
listing here, what needs to be done, please correct me, if I'm wrong.

The stargate lib folder contains:
asm-3.1.jar, jackson-asl-0.9.4.jar, jersey-core-1.1.0-ea.jar,
jersey-server-1.1.0-ea.jar, persistence-api-1.0.jar, commons-codec-1.3.jar,
jaxb-impl-2.1.10.jar, jersey-json-1.1.0-ea.jar, jsr311-api-1.1.jar,
protobuf-java-2.1.0.jar 

It seems, that the following jars are either not used or only used for the
tests:
asm-3.1.jar, jackson-asl-0.9.4.jar, jaxb-impl-2.1.10.jar

The following are already in Debian:
commons-codec-1.3.jar
persistence-api-1.0.jar (libgeronimo-jpa-3.0-spec-java 1.1.1-1)
protobuf-java-2.1.0.jar (libprotobuf-java 2.3.0-1)

Which leaves the following to be packaged:

jersey-core-1.1.0-ea.jar, jersey-server-1.1.0-ea.jar, jersey-json-1.1.0-ea.jar
( https://jersey.dev.java.net )

jsr311-api-1.1.jar ( https://jsr311.dev.java.net )

Upstream version of jersey is 1.1.5.1. Would stargate work with this version?

java.net doesn't seem to release tarballs, so I could obtain the sources only
from these jars:

http://download.java.net/maven/2/com/sun/jersey/jersey-bundle/1.1.5.1/jersey-bundle-1.1.5.1-sources.jar
respectively:
http://download.java.net/maven/2/javax/ws/rs/jsr311-api/1.1.1/jsr311-api-1.1.1-sources.jar

> HBase depends on agile-json, which includes the following phrase in its 
> license:
> "The Software shall be used for Good, not Evil."
> Debian-Legal advised me, that for this phrase the software is considered 
> non-free. As a consequence, hbase could not be included in the official 
> Debian distribution but only in the contrib repository. I discussed this 
> issue also with crockford, but he made it clear that he has no intention to 
> change his license.
> http://www.json.org lists several Java Json libraries. Maybe you could take 
> another one with a more sane license text?
> Yes, this issue is highly controversial and you'll most likely not spend the 
> hours of work only because crockford and Debian are both bullheads.
> Just keep this issue open as crockford-remembrance issue. May it help to 
> fight the evil!
