Are you satisfied with Nicolas' answer on this one?
I'd still prefer a rewording there, to clearly state that if/when the two documents are in conflict, the Fedora Java Guidelines win.
- "If the number of provided JAR files exceeds two, place them into a
sub-directory." What makes two the magic number here? Why not simply more than 1?
Again, is Nicolas' answer okay here?
Sure.
- "%{_jnidir} usually expands into /usr/lib/java." This should probably
be %{_libdir}/java.
I'd like Tom to comment here but I'm not sure multilib-ifying jpackage-utils is possible right now.
Is nothing in the Java space multilib? If not, maybe we can let this slide as is, but I suspect lots of Java stuff is multilib, and we need to get this fixed.
- I think you've got an accidental line wrap in the example for
"Packaging JAR files that use JNI"
Is this fixed now?
Looks good.
- It might also be worthwhile to do an "ant" spec template and a
"maven" spec template. I'm not sure how different these two packaging types would be, but the guidelines seem to imply significant differences.
Do the other messages in this thread satisfy you that this isn't worth it?
To be honest, no. If we're going to have maven based packages, I would feel much better about having an example template.
