MIR review:
* Builds fine with only main enabled
* No testsuite
* No Ubuntu delta
* No bug subscriber
* Has a watch file
* This is pretty new software, with 1.0 coming out late last year and 1.1 a
few weeks ago
* lintian clean
* debian/rules is reasonable
* Errors/warnings during the build. There are some warnings in the build:
[javac] warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with
-source 1.4
[javac] /PKGBUILDDIR/src/org/tukaani/xz/LZMA2Encoder.java:26: warning:
[static] static variable should be qualified by type name, LZMA2Options,
instead of by an expression
[javac] warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with
-source 1.4
[javac] /PKGBUILDDIR/src/org/tukaani/xz/LZMA2Encoder.java:26: warning:
[static] static variable should be qualified by type name, LZMA2Options,
instead of by an expression
[javadoc] warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with
-source 1.4
* No bugs in Debian or Ubuntu
Security review:
No CVE history. Only supplies libraries. No initscripts/upstart jobs, dbus
services, setuid, fscaps usage, sudo/su/pkexec, cron jobs or daemons. Code
inspection shows this is typical java and highly classed. Doing a shallow
audit, things seem ok.
I have some reservations with the newness of the package, but the
decoding/encoding code (the security sensitive bits) are based on p7zip,
which is in the archive (though in universe), so it should be possible
to create patches if upstream evaporates.
I have verified xz-java works as expected by creating the xz-java-
test.sh test script. Feel free to update it and add it to the Debian
packaging (I chose the same license that the Debian developer did for
debian/*).
Conditional ACK provided the build warnings are addressed.
