Bug#862601: libmaven3-core-java: Version upgrade request to 3.5.0

[Emmanuel Bourg]

Hi Elana,

Maven 3.5.0 with the new maven-resolver replacing eclipse-aether is now
in experimental. Let me know how it works for you with pomegranate.

I don't know when Stretch will be released, but I can upload Maven 3.5.0
to experimental. I got a look and the upgrade seems straightforward.

Hi Emmanuel,

   


   
The first thing I considered was to upgrade pomegranate to work with the Maven  

   
3.3.9 release and the existing version of Aether, but it's about the same   

   
amount of work to upgrade from Maven 3.0.5 -> 3.3.9 as it is to 3.0.5 -> 3.5.0. 

   
Since there are (yet again) major interface changes between 3.3.9 -> 3.5.0 on   

   
the Aether side, and since the Aether dep in 3.3.9 is no longer supported   

   
upstream, I figured it would be easiest for everyone if we went ahead with the  

   
full upgrade upstream now instead of kicking it down the road.  

   


   
Do you know how long it will be until the stretch release is done and this will 

   
be picked up? I'm just curious for a rough estimate, to see if the plan above   

   
makes sense. I'd also be interested in your feedback on that.   

   


   
Thanks for all your work on this,

Hi Elana,

I plan to start working on Maven 3.5 after the Stretch release.

Did you try building pomegranate with libaether-java? If it works we can
keep it in Debian even if it is abandoned upstream.

Bug#862601: libmaven3-core-java: Version upgrade request to 3.5.0

[Elana Hashman]

Package: libmaven3-core-java
Version: 3.3.9-4
Severity: wishlist
Control: block 862233 by -1

To facilitate packaging leiningen2, this package needs an upgrade to 
version 3.5.0.


This is because its dependency libpomegranate-clojure currently depends 
on a version of maven much older than available in unstable. We are 
working to upgrade that upstream, and would prefer to use version 3.5.0 
over 3.3.9, as the latter has a dependency (libaether-java) that has 
been orphaned. Maven 3.5.0 imports aether directly into its codebase. 
See #862233 for more info.
