Hi all, I'm working on packaging Solr for Debian. The package will install Solr as a Tomcat 5.5 webapp. I got the package working, but I would like the package to use the Debian-supplied lucene and xpp3 .jar files, which with Debian are installed under /usr/share/java. It is Debian policy not to unnecessarily duplicate .jars on the same system.
I've tried the following approaches without success: - putting full paths to the .jars in META-INF/MANIFEST.MF - symlinking the .jars in /usr/share/java to /usr/share/solr/WEB-INF/lib - symlinking the .jars in /usr/share/java to /usr/share/tomcat5.5/shared/lib Does anyone know how to get Tomcat to use the .jars under /usr/share/java for the solr webapp? If you're interested: SVN repository (read-only): http://svn.vanbest.org/svn/solr Websvn: http://svn.vanbest.org/websvn/listing.php?repname=solr Private Debian repository: http://www.vanbest.org/debian/ Thanks for any help, Jan-Pascal
