Sponsoring a Java package

Hi, I am a new DD, so there are a lot of subtleties out there still waiting for me to learn :) One of them is: A coworker of mine is a co-developer of a Java-based LMS, OpenUSS (http://www.openuss.org). We were talking that it would be interesting to package OpenUSS for Debian - Initially I

How do I get libtool to use g++?

2003-05-30 Thread Neil Roeth
I recently had a bug (193950) filed against one of my packages because the shared libraries had undefined non-weak symbols - libstdc++ was not being linked in. I resolved it with what I consider a gruesome hack. I discovered that forcing libtool to use g++ while linking would automatically link
