Re: Bug#1054361: ITP: jruby-jzlib



Hi Jérôme,

I've prepared the jruby-jzlib package, but I'm uncertain about the relationship it should have with jzlib.

Since the module itself is still using the same "com.jcraft" namespace, I'm thinking of using a Conflicts: and Provides: on libjzlib-java.

No that's not necessary, because the libjzlib-java and libjruby-jzlib-java packages do not conflict at the filesystem level. The Conflicts field doesn't cover classpath conflicts.


You can check out the package here: https://salsa.debian.org/lavamind/jruby-jzlib

I got a quick look at the jzlib fork [1] and there are very few changes compared to the original project, it just adds a JPMS auto module name. We could simply patch our existing jzlib package instead of introducing a new one. On the jruby side, that would mean patching the Maven coordinates of jzlib (org.jruby:jzlib -> com.jcraft:jzlib).
