Hi archers! Motivation to move: * Package has no a contributor. * Any packages don't depend on it. * Package is outdated. -- Sincerely yours, Vitaliy Berdinskikh (Виталий Бердинских)

I use JUnit heavily, so I'll be happy to maintain it in AUR/unsupported if no one else wants to. DR

junit is a makedepends for bcprov so it needs to stay in extra.

Which is a depend for azureus... something else using it? Maybe we should move them together then.

It used to be, but azureus contains an internal copy. If you don't build azureus from source, the bcprov classes are included.

Ok, I wanted only to know if bcprov must be in community or can be in unsupported. so, we must wait others dev/tu opinion... -- Andrea `BaSh` Scarpino Arch Linux Developer

No packages in extra depends on bcprov. But both bcprov and junit are needed by community packages so if they are removed from extra they'll need to go in community repo. Is there a TU willing to adopt/maintain them?

I am willing, unless some more knowledgable person is interested. -- Chris
