Bug#856693: Drop ant dependency

[Michael Biebl]

Source: libapache-poi-java
Version: 3.10.1-3
Severity: important

libapache-poi-java is an indirect dependency of libreoffice, so pulled
in on every desktop installation.

Having a build tool like ant being pulled because of a library
dependency is unwanted in such a case. Please consider dropping the
dependency on ant.

Bug#689969: Please drop Recommends on ant or lower to Suggests

[Michael Biebl]

Package: libjtidy-java
Version: 7+svn20110807-4
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm using libreoffice and libjtidy-java has been installed as a indirect
dependency:

$ LANG=C aptitude why libjtidy-java
i   libreoffice Dependsliblucene2-java (= 2.3.2)  
i A liblucene2-java Recommends libjtidy-java (= 7+svn20070309)

libjtidy-java on the other hand recommends ant, which recommends
ant-optional.
As a result ant will be installed on every system by default, which has
the libreoffice office suite installed. That looks wrong to me.

I'm not a Java developer using libjtidy-java, where having ant installed
would make sense. Please consider removing the ant recommends or
demoting it to suggests.

Thanks,
Michael

Bug#547735: libcommons-compress-java: Breaks bootchart (no TarInputStream)

[Michael Biebl]

Package: libcommons-compress-java
Version: 1.0-1
Severity: serious
Justification: breaks unrelated packages

Since the latest update of libcommons-compress-java, the bootchart
binary is broken, it exits with the following error:

bootchart /var/log/bootchart/pluto-sid-20090922-1.tgz 
Exception in thread main java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: 
org/apache/commons/compress/archivers/tar/TarInputStream
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: 
org.apache.commons.compress.archivers.tar.TarInputStream
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200)

at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:252)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:320)
Could not find the main class: org.bootchart.Main.  Program will exit

With the libcommons-compress-java version from testing, it works fine.

Problem might be, that the Class name seems to have been renamed to 
TarArchiveInputStream which breaks dependend packages.

Bug#513661: libjaxme-java: Please split documentation into a doc package

[Michael Biebl]

Package: libjaxme-java
Version: 0.5.2+dfsg-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

given the size of the documentation (25,8 Mb for the docs, 28,5 Mb for
the complete package), it would imho make sense to split the API
documentation into a separate arch:all package.

Cheers,
Michael

Bug#513662: libjaxen-java: Please split api doc into separate doc package

[Michael Biebl]

Package: libjaxen-java
Version: 1.1.1-3
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

the complete package is 6,98 Mb, the api documentation 6,4 Mb. I
therefore recommend to split the documentation into a separate arch:all
doc package.

Bug#506220: Not clear, why I need ant-gcj

[Michael Biebl]

Package: ant
Version: 1.7.0-6
Severity: normal

ant-gcj is a Recommends of ant, so it is installed by default, when you
install ant.
The package descriptions of ant and ant-gcj are identical and I also
couldn't find any explanation in a README.Debian or the changelog, why I
should have ant-gcj installed (ant-gcj has quite a long dependency list).

So this bug report is twofold:
- Please improve the description of ant-gcj, why I should install it and
  the relationship to ant
- For the sake of a more sane dependency list, please demote ant-gcj to
  a Suggests, unless it is really important enough, to have ant-gcj
  installed.


Cheers,
Michael
