Hello and thanks for reporting. tl;dr In short, if you want a working PDFsam package in unstable at the moment, downgrade libhibernate-validator-java to 4.3.4-1. You can find the Debian package at http://snapshot.debian.org/ I can confirm your findings. Apparently the update of libhibernate-validator-java to version 5.3.6 broke PDFsam. There are multiple problems at the moment. First of all the latest version of libhibernate-validator-java requires libgeronimo-validation-1.1-spec-java because version 1.0 is incompatible. This can be solved by simply updating libsejda-java and changing the build-dependeny and maven.rule file. Then we also have to update pdfsam and symlink geronimo-validation-1.1-spec.jar in debian/rules. Additionally we need a symlink to classmate.jar and el-api. The former should be definitely added to the CLASSPATH of libhibernate-validator-java and I will file a new bug report for this one. Now I am stuck at the following error message: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError: null Caused by: javax.el.ELException: Provider com.sun.el.ExpressionFactoryImpl not found I don't know if someone has already packaged com.sun.el.ExpressionFactoryImpl and why it is necessary at all. So far for now Regards, Markus
