Bug 41064 – new ebuild for itext 2.02 (java pdf library)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Matthew Gregory Sr. 2004-02-09 19:30:34 UTC]

I created an ebuild for itext (see url: api for PDF creation in java).
Everything should be here, and I have had no build issues.  

The example url is the repackaged source.  The source from the website comes as 3 parts.  A build.xml for ant, src.tar.gz and srcXML.tar.gz.  I have repackaged it as itext-2.02.tar.bz2.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

proper tarball of the source... see comments in bug report for why I repackaged it.

Comments:

Use header.txt from $PORTDIR for the first lines.  This will always be right
and you'll avoid things like getting the copyright date wrong.

No need to cd to ${S} in src_compile() and src_install() - that's the default.

put packages in DEPEND and RDEPEND on separate lines.  it's easier to read.

otherwise, pretty nice. ;-)

I retouched the ebuild as suggested.

USE THIS EBUILD

I've noticed that I had an error in the test for the J2EE_HOME evar where the
test always returns true.  I've fixed that, and the header.  This ebuild should
now be fairly robust.

In portage. Thanks.
