Bug#633958: libjaffl-java: Library does not declare any dependencies and hence does not work correctly

[Damien Raude-Morvan]

Hi James !

 libjaffl-java does not declare any dependencies on other Java libraries;
 however it needs at least libjffl-java and libasm3-java to work correctly.
 
 It may also need libjnr-x86asm-java but I did not have issues with that
 being missing.

This should be fixed by 0.5.9-3 upload in unstable. Could you please check ?

Cheers,

Bug#633958: libjaffl-java: Library does not declare any dependencies and hence does not work correctly

[James Page]

Package: libjaffl-java
Version: 0.5.4-1
Severity: normal


libjaffl-java does not declare any dependencies on other Java libraries; 
however it needs at least libjffl-java and libasm3-java to work correctly.

It may also need libjnr-x86asm-java but I did not have issues with that being 
missing.

This situation is made worse by the fact that the Maven project object model 
for this library declares these dependencies as 'provided' which means they are 
not automatically picked up by Maven.

I discovered this issue whilst transitioning jenkins from libjna-posix-java to 
libjnr-posix-java.
