[aur-general] Doubts about Java {,bindings} packages
by Giovanni Santini 15 Jul '15

15 Jul '15

Hello everybody, I just wanted to share some doubts about some packages cointaining Java libraries. As I noticed that some official packages that usually ships Java libraries upstream (for binding or common usage) haven't such files in official PKGBUILDs/packages, I had to edit the official PKGBUILD in order to build also Java files. The actual packages I'm referring to are opencv[1] and gettext[2], for which I've created {opencv,gettext}-java (see [3],[4]). My doubts are the following: - As my packages are just some files that are missed from the official packages because of a missing 'java-environment' makedependency, should I open an issue in the bug tracker asking for the addition of the Java libraries? - Is it fine to host some files on AUR packages that are expected to be in the official packages? - Actually, for splitting already present packages and Java ones (the ones that aren't in official packages), I made a really simple but dirty thing; I made that 'make install' put files in '$srcdir/temp' and then I copy the files I need with a 'cp /path/to/file $pkgdir/path/in/os/to/file'. I tried creating a directory with something like 'mktemp -d -p $srcdir' but during package(), every temporary directory variable (made with 'tmpdir=$(mktemp -d -p $srcdir)') is lost and I can't create any directory (because we are in the fakeroot environment). I have no ideas for making this in a cleaner way, so I hope it is fine to do so; if someone has some suggestions, please tell me. TL;DR Should I ask to add this libraries in official packages or doing my AUR packages?
