In this week I have kept improving gradle_1.12-1: Although the upstream has been repacked for multiple times, we still keep the version as 1.12-1 instead of 1.12+dfsg-1 by retagging the Git commits. After multiple repacks I have got rid of all lintian errors. The remaining lintian warnings are fine to be left.
I have also updated the man page using Pandoc Markdown. I prefer Markdown over the original .pod file because it is more human readable and maintainable. The man page content is based on the Gradle User Guide Appendix D "Gradle Command Line" <https://docs.gradle.org/1.12/userguide/gradle_command_line.html> I tested gradle_1.12-1 by building all its build-rdeps and only two of them failed: openjfx and libspring-java. I have confirmed that openjfx upstream cannot be built with official Gradle 1.12, and libspring-java is affected by the ongoing jruby transition. Hence so far the gradle_1.12-1 is fully fuctional and is production ready. My co-mentor Markus Koschany is reviewing the package currently. Next step is adding update-alternative mechanism to gradle because we are making a separate gradle-1.12 package. After that I'll continue to gradle_2.4-1. Unfortunately the upcoming week is full of semester final exams and I won't have much time on Debian.
