Package: maven-debian-helper Version: 1.4.4 Severity: normal
When using the maven cdbs class, a jar file that presumably should contain all the generated javadoc is installed under /usr/share/maven-repo/. However, this jar file actually contains all the class files and is basically the same as the main jar file for the package. The -javadoc.jar is created as part of the normal build, but the install step copies the wrong source. The code that is responsible for this copy action is called SysInstallDocMojo. I found many *-java-doc packages that suffer from having the wrong jar file. It can be observed e.g. as follows: wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libx/libxml-security-java/libxml-security-java-doc_1.4.5-1_all.deb dpkg-deb --extract /private/home/dennis/Downloads/libxml-security-java-doc_1.4.5-1_all.deb binary-libxml-security-java-doc-root jar tf binary-libxml-security-java-doc-root/usr/share/maven-repo/org/apache/santuario/xmlsec/1.4.5/xmlsec-1.4.5-javadoc.jar I'm running Ubuntu oneiric, so the versions I have are somewhat behind, but I did check the latest version of maven-debian-helper in sid and found the issue persists there. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers oneiric-updates APT policy: (500, 'oneiric-updates'), (500, 'oneiric-security'), (500, 'oneiric-proposed'), (500, 'oneiric') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-15-generic (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nl_NL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages maven-debian-helper depends on: ii default-jdk 1:1.6-42ubuntu2 Standard Java or Java compatible D ii libmaven-clean-plugin-ja 2.3-3 Maven clean plugin ii libmaven-compiler-plugin 2.0.2-4 Maven compiler plugin ii libmaven-jar-plugin-java 2.2-4 Maven Jar plugin ii libmaven-resources-plugi 2.3-5 Maven resources plugin ii libmaven-site-plugin-jav 2.1-1 Maven Site Plugin for generating a ii libplexus-velocity-java 1.1.7-3 Plexus component interface to velo ii libsurefire-java 2.4.3-4 Surefire test framework for Java ii maven-repo-helper 1.5.2 Helper tools for including Maven m ii maven2 2.2.1-7build1 Java software project management a ii velocity 1.6.2-4 Java-based template engine for web maven-debian-helper recommends no packages.
