Description Yuan Liao (Leo3418) 2023-04-01 17:21:17 UTC

dev-java/junit-5.9.2 should list the Maven artifacts it installs in the MAVEN_PROVIDES variable inside the ebuild.

However, the MAVEN_PROVIDES value for this ebuild requires extra attention because the ebuild has these special properties:

- The ebuild conditionally installs some artifacts depending on the USE flags.  For example, org.junit.vintage:junit-vintage-engine:5.9.2 is installed if and only if USE="vintage" is set.  When the said USE flag is disabled, the files installed by the ebuild no longer provide org.junit.vintage:junit-vintage-engine:5.9.2.

- The ebuild installs files for at least 8 Maven artifacts; even more artifacts will be installed when more USE flags are enabled.  Thus, the value of MAVEN_PROVIDES will contain at least 8 artifact coordinates and thus be too long, unless multi-line MAVEN_PROVIDES values are supported (https://bugs.gentoo.org/903666).
