Package: libnative-platform-java
Followup-For: Bug #844021
Hi,
As already explained, as libnative-platform-java changed its ABI, the new
version does not work with (all) programs wrote for the previous version.
In Debian, gradle is the only one reverse dependency of
libnative-platform-java (i.e. it is the only package that directly uses
libnative-platform-java).
gradle 2.13 do not work with libnative-platform-java 0.11 (at least, not all
features of gradle can be used when libnative-platform-java 0.11 is intalled)
But gradle 3.1 (currently in unstable) works with (and even requires)
libnative-platform-java 0.11.
So, to close this bug, I propose this small patch:
diff --git a/debian/control b/debian/control

Description: Java bindings for various native APIs
A collection of cross-platform Java APIs for various native APIs.
Supports OS X, Linux, Solaris and Windows.
Applying it will ensure that, (when gradle and libnative-platform-java will
be migrated to testing) if a user does a partial upgrade from stable to
testing, it will not keep a (old) gradle with a (incompatible) new
libnative-platform-java package.
Regards,
Vincent
