Debian Java FAQ.
Chapter 11 - Java Policy



11.1 Is there a Java policy for Debian?

It is still in the works. The current policy addresses some of the problems. It has not been officially released. You can find it at http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/java-policy/. The Java Policy can also be found in the java-common package. You might want to also take a look at the Common Java Packaging entry in the Debian wiki.


11.2 Are there holes in the Java Policy?

Yes, some until under discussion. Please check out the bugs against the java-common package. Thus it is very inconvenient to use several compilers of virtual machines since there is not one CLASSPATH setting for all of them.
