Description Josh Nichols (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-17 02:54:58 UTC
All of the jars that xdoclet provide have its version in their filenames.

This makes it difficult to create ebuilds which depend xdoclet jars, without requiring a specific version. In addition, requiring a specific version isn't a good idea, considering that the package isn't slotted.

latest ebuild seems to allready do this?
all sloted the same, don't think its worth doeing for older version?

imho no need to change the old ebuilds, which also make use of packed jars
