<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Andreas,<br>
<br>
For Osmosis I'm trying to package the new released version 0.43.1
which doesn't build the same way as 0.40. They use gradle now. I
can get it to compile but when I try it, it throws ClassNotFound
exceptions, same thing happen when I build it myself without using
debuild.<br>
<br>
The ticket in lilbgdal-ecw-src is here:

<a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/ubuntugis/ticket/34">http://trac.osgeo.org/ubuntugis/ticket/34</a>.
<br>
<br>
For Marble, contacting the maintainers might be a good idea since
it seems that compiling without KDE removes a lot from Marble,
I'll have to see with OSGeoLive too if it still works for them.<br>
<br>
The blockage with Geotools is that it requires Java Artifacts that
are not available in a .deb. The most important one is JAI which
can't be packaged from what I understand because of its license.
Someone told me that it may be possible to disable JAI in GeoTools
so I'll have to look into it.<br>

Are you aware of

I admit thia is not the latest upstream version but the packaging work
should be done in principle. Did you checked out
$ apt-cache showsrc osmosis | grep -e ^Vcs

I have not checked the Debian package whether it is using KDE libs but I
guess you are in contact with the maintainers.

I do not know this package but I'd recommend maintaining it in Debian GIS
team would be reasonable to let it migrate smoothly to any Ubuntu version
you need. I repeat my offer to Sponsering of Blends[1] which should
smoothen your path to get packages uploaded to the Debian mirror if you
really want to.

<pre wrap="">
Please add communication with Debian GIS on this list. Both packages are
inside Debian and it makes perfectly sense to do the work only once.

Moving experimental to unstable should be cheap - its probably just a
consequence of the Wheezy release cycle.

Like I said before, there is a lot of problem with packaging
Geotools and the Osmosis java exception.

Please try to get rid of blockers by cooperation with Debian GIS.
Kind regards and good luck for your GSoC work
