[edit] Java-Gnome 4.x

[edit] Summary

Fedora is currently including part of 2.x java-gnome stack. The idea is to include 4.x stack and move 2.x to compat-. due to incompatibility between apis.

[edit] Detailed Description

Java-gnome is a Gtk wrapper/implementation for Java Applications that allow to develop gtk applications using Java. To stay in sync with Upstream, we need to move to 4.x release.

[edit] Benefit to Fedora

Stay in sync with upstream with latest patches, features and add capabilities to Java-Gtk applications

[edit] Scope

Changes to do:

• Build 4.x version packages as java-gnome
• Move 2.x stack to compat-java-gnome
• List packages with depends on the current version of stack (2.x)
• Build packages against 4.x stack if it possible
• Packages that not fit with 4.x must be marked to depends on compat-

[edit] How To Test

• FIXME

[edit] User Experience

• More java-applications colud be included in Fedora
• Some java-applications today included in Fedora can be updated to lastest releases, with new features

[edit] Dependencies

• FIXME

[edit] Contingency Plan

• None: Packages that cannot be build against 4.x stack must be pointed to compat-java-gnome (current stack)
• If something really goes to hell, remove java-gnome 4.x stack and back to current stack (2.x)
