This bug has been tracked and found in bsh. It should be fixed in the next Ubuntu release, provided that all synchronization with Debian has been done.
@bwana: packaging Java tools and libraries is a worthwhile effort, in that it enables a wider audience for Java on Linux, and facilitate installation of lots of software. Haven't you ever met a co-worker who could not start Ant or Maven because he did not' know how to setup the MAVEN_HOME or ANT_HOME environment variables, and then had trouble with his classpath because of spaces in the directory names? And you could not share your scripts with your team, because everybody installed the software in different places? Packaging removes those little annoyances and brings consistency. It brings also other features, for example with the maven2 package you have tab-completion enabled. Type mvn -- then press tab, and be surprised! As the process of packaging is quite tedious and require some (easy) work, it takes time to get everything right, but I'm pleased to say that there is good progress already. If you call yourself a developer, then join the teams at ubuntu-java or debian-java (http://wiki.debian.org/Java) Ludovic -- Installing maven2 requires gcj even though sun java is installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446282 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
