We have a libsnappy-java version available in DebianMed [0], but a
specific release (certainly due to a package which needed this specific
release and upstream broke its API).
I do not know if we need to manage snappy by itself in DebianMed repo as
it has nothing related to bio/med but is only a dependency.

I have sent a patch to fix the bug on loading native library. However
this raises an other issue, it seems that Java lib is not matching
native lib on methods.
I have put details in the bug.

I have migrated

   ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-java/libnetlib-java.git  and
   ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-java/libmtj-java.git

as well as injected the latest pristine-tar.  Previous pristine-tar info
is missing as well as all tags are lost.  I do not feel that the missing
tags is a real problem.  I'd volunteer to inject them manually in case
you would prefer this.

I'll check and it would be fine to move it to pkg-java as well.

Thanks for your offer to help

 Andreas.

Hello Andreas,

If you're willing to migrate these to the pkg-java repo, I'll work on
updating them and uploading them as Java Team packages.

Also, I've been meaning to send you a mail regarding libsnappy-java,
since we have an RC bug there.  The last commit makes it appear that you
were considering moving it debian-med in 2012.  Is that still the case?

Cheers,
tony
