Changed the bug title to something a little more direct. doko, I'm not sure who the person is who did the Ubuntu packages, nor am I sure where they kept their dsc files.
It would be great if who-ever is going to mind bumping the 2.x java- gnome packages for Ubuntu would stop by #java-gnome on gimpnet from time to time so we can touch base and co-ordinate. It's rather difficult trying to help Ubuntu users when I have no communication with the people at Canonical doing the packaging on the wrong versions. AfC ** Summary changed: - Current version of libglib-java in edgy is incompatible to the other packages of the java-gnome project + java-gnome packages in Edgy are all incorrect ** Description changed: + GNOME release team got a bit out of sync with the java-gnome hackers, + and as a result what someone at Ubuntu packaged up is in an inconsistent + state. + + Original reporter notes: + Binary package hint: libglib-java The current version of libglib-java 0.3.2 is incompatible to rest of the packages of the gnome-java project. Therefore libglib-java needs to be updated to 0.4. Also I strongly recommend to update all packages of gnome-java projects to the version recommended in the gnome-java 2.16.0 release to ensure stability. This is a major issue, because java bindings like they're now in Edgy are not functional. These are the affected packages and the versions, which are recommended by java-gnome 2.16.0 release: * glib-java 0.4.0 * cairo-java 1.0.6 * libgtk-java 2.10.0 * libgnome-java 2.12.6 * libglade-java 2.12.7 * libgconf-java 2.12.5 * libvte-java 0.12.2 Also see http://java-gnome.sourceforge.net/cgi- bin/bin/view/Main/NewsTwoSixteenZero -- java-gnome packages in Edgy are all incorrect https://launchpad.net/bugs/70113 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
