Bug 108517 – bin/dojar deprecated

• Product: Portage Development
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Thomas Matthijs (RETIRED) 2005-10-08 10:32:23 UTC]

Please remove bin/dojar from future portage versions
It shouldn't be used anymore

It has been replaced a long time ago by the java-pkg_dojar 
function in the java-pkg.eclass

[Comment 1 Petteri Räty (RETIRED) 2005-10-08 12:10:38 UTC]

Used this command to find out packages still using dojar:
betelgeuse@pena /usr/portage $ grep -e "\bdojar\b" -r .

Besided Changelogs and comments I found this.
./sci-libs/vtk/vtk-4.2.6.ebuild:        use java && dojar ${S}/bin/vtk.jar

CCing people responsible to fix their package.

i fixed it before i made this bug
and a better grep is '[^_]dojar'

[Comment 3 Jan Kundrát (RETIRED) 2005-10-08 12:23:55 UTC]

I haven't found any mention of "dojar" in our docs. Why is GDP on CC? 

[Comment 4 Zac Medico 2006-02-10 22:39:51 UTC]

I grepped the tree and found only two ebuilds using dojar:

net-im/mercury
sci-libs/libsvm

I can make the necessary changes to the remaining packages, if the maintainers don't have an objection.

Please, do; I'd like to have dojar removed for the 2.1 release if thats possible, this bug has been open for 6 months.

[Comment 7 Josh Nichols (RETIRED) 2006-07-31 20:42:07 UTC]

I just fixed the last two packages, so we should be good to remove dojar.

[Comment 8 Zac Medico 2006-08-01 10:45:41 UTC]

I've removed dojar in svn r4081.

[Comment 9 Zac Medico 2006-08-02 15:11:03 UTC]

As of 2.1.1_pre4-r2, dojar is no longer included.  I've also removed the dojar section from ebuild.5 in svn r4090 (that will be released in 2.1.1_pre4-r3).
