With this bug report, I would like to create a bionic SRU for the libjsyntaxpane-java package.
The debdiff is attached. The commit is on the "bionic-SRU" branch: https://salsa.debian.org/java-team/libjsyntaxpane-java/commits/bionic-SRU Please review this as I did not initiate many Ubuntu SRUs. [Impact] * Freeplane uses libjsyntaxpane-java for editing groovy and latex content * libjsyntaxpane-java-0.9.6~r156-6 is not compatible with Java9; with Java9, it crashes at runtime when opening the editor(s). * The fix is simple (one patch for java9 fix, one patch for making it build without maven) is simple and well tested on Debian unstable and Debian testing [Test Case] * Install 'freeplane', add a node with content "\latex $x_2=3$" (without quotes), and edit the node with Alt+Enter. Without the fix (-6), there will be a popup with an exception. With the fix (-6ubuntu1), an editor with syntax highlighting will pop up. [Regression Potential] * In theory, the editor could still not work with the new (-6ubuntu1) version (unlikely, because the fix is well-tested). There is no risk since the current version of libjsyntaxpane-java is completely broken. [Other Info] * Anything else you think is useful to include * Anticipate questions from users, SRU, +1 maintenance, security teams and the Technical Board * and address these questions in advance ** Patch added: "bionic-jsyntaxpane-SRU.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libjsyntaxpane-java/+bug/1770809/+attachment/5141572/+files/bionic-jsyntaxpane-SRU.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1770809 Title: [bionic SRU] Port libjsyntaxpane-java 0.9.6~r156-7 java9 crash to bionic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libjsyntaxpane-java/+bug/1770809/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
