Package: kaffe-pthreads Version: 2:1.1.7-4 Severity: important A package that build depends on kaffe to call something from /usr/lib/kaffe/bin/java* will fail to build when kaffe-pthreads is already installed but kaffe is not, because /usr/lib/kaffe/bin will not exist but the build dependencies will appear to be satisfied because kaffe-pthreads "Provides" kaffe.
So either kaffe-pthreads is not telling the truth about what it provides, or the kaffe package is useless as a build dependency. This currently causes at least hsqldb and jline to fail to build in those circumstances. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-k7 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages kaffe-pthreads depends on: ii ecj-bootstrap 3.2.1-3 bootstrap version of the Eclipse J ii fastjar 1:4.1.1-21 Jar creation utility ii gjdoc 0.7.7-7 documentation generation framework ii kaffe-common 2:1.1.7-4 Files shared between all Kaffe VM ii libasound2 1.0.13-2 ALSA library ii libatk1.0-0 1.12.4-3 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.2.4-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libesd0 0.2.36-3 Enlightened Sound Daemon - Shared ii libfontconfig1 2.4.2-1.2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.2.1-5 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgmp3c2 2:4.2.1+dfsg-4 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.20-7 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpango1.0-0 1.14.8-5 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libsm6 1:1.0.1-3 X11 Session Management library ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-6 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1.1.7-4 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.1-5 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 1:1.0.1-4 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.1-4.1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxrandr2 2:1.1.0.2-5 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.1-3 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxtst6 1:1.0.1-5 X11 Testing -- Resource extension ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime kaffe-pthreads recommends no packages. -- no debconf information _______________________________________________ pkg-java-maintainers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-java-maintainers
