Hi,
I would recommend asking in debian-j...@lists.debian.org. :)
>From memory, you need a java specific helper tool for these. Which one
you need depends on the exact package and I am not entirely sure that
all build systems have support.
Which leads us back to my recommendation of asking the debian-java
team. :)

Correct way to detect JAR dependencies
Hi!
I'm upstream developer for zeroc-ice, in one of the packages build from
this source zeroc-icegridgui, a bug has been reported regarding missing JAR
dependencies (Bug#846498).
The package in question uses java:depends but that seems to not work here
or maybe is not being used correctly:
https://github.com/zeroc-ice/ice-debian-packaging/blob/3.6/debian/control#L290-L293
dpkg produces a warning dpkg-gencontrol: warning: Depends field of package
zeroc-icegridgui: unknown substitution variable ${java:Depends}
What is the correct way to declare the dependencies for JARs include in
separate packages?
Regards,
José
