Public bug reported: At the moment, the following packages all fail to build from source because they depend on libjenkins-plugin-parent-java which is unavailable: jenkins-ant-plugin jenkins-antisamy-markup-formatter-plugin jenkins-mailer-plugin jenkins-matrix-auth-plugin jenkins-matrix-project-plugin
Their common dependency, libjenkins-plugin-parent-java, is part of the Jenkins source package which has been removed from Ubuntu (bug 1294005) due to "numerous security vulnerabilities, too difficult to maintain in a distribution;"(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jenkins/+publishinghistory) Since Jenkins is missing, these packages have never built successfully on Ubuntu, and thus have remained unbuilt in -proposed. All packages are plugins for Jenkins so I doubt they would be useful on their own. So at the moment they only pad out the list of build failures (http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/ftbfs). I therefore believe these packages can be removed. If Jenkins would be reintroduced to the archives in the future, then these plugins might become relevant again, but it should be easy to resync them in such a case. ** Affects: jenkins-ant-plugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: jenkins-antisamy-markup-formatter-plugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: jenkins-mailer-plugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: jenkins-matrix-auth-plugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: jenkins-matrix-project-plugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: ftbfs ** Also affects: jenkins-antisamy-markup-formatter-plugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: jenkins-mailer-plugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: jenkins-matrix-auth-plugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: jenkins-matrix-project-plugin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags added: ftbfs -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1518613 Title: Please remove jenkins-plugins which depend on Jenkins from the archive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jenkins-ant-plugin/+bug/1518613/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
