marcin_antdoko_: hello10:19
doko_good morning10:31
marcin_antdoko_: hi10:35
marcin_antdoko_: I got a question to you about debian/ubuntu policy while sun's java is available in universe10:36
marcin_antdoko_: is there any change in official policy?10:36
marcin_antdoko_: and next question is about your plans for ant and eclipse 3.2...10:36
marcin_antdoko_: could you tell what is the status of eclipse 3.2 package and are there any plans to provide packages related to sun-java?10:37
doko_I don't have 3.2 packages yet. do you have some?10:37
marcin_antdoko_: I started to work on them but I don't have any successfull build yet10:38
marcin_antdoko_: another thing is that few eclipse parts requires java510:39
marcin_antdoko_: so this is why I ask about policy...10:39
marcin_antI just wonder if it could be possible to provide for example two packages for ant and two for eclipse10:40
marcin_antsomething like: ant, ant-common, ant-sun and ant-gcj....10:40
doko_afaik eclipse 3.2 can be built using 1.410:40
marcin_antthat's right but build instructions 10:42
marcin_ant(take a look at instructions.html in eclipse source directory)10:42
marcin_antsays that system requirements are:10:42
marcin_ant1.4 _and_ 1.5 JDK10:42
marcin_antand also says that: "Libraries in install used to compile plug-ins in the eclipse SDK that require 1.5 compliance (currently only JDT APT)"10:43
doko_no, we don't need an ant-sun package, and if, then it has to go to multiverse10:52
marcin_antdoko_: ok and what about eclipse-sun?11:16
marcin_antdoko_: we all know that with sun java eclipse is much faster...11:16
doko_no, we are about free software in the first place. you can run the eclipse packages with sun-java as well.11:17
marcin_antdoko_: well you know, now I don't care; from about a week I got new computer with Core 2 Duo which is powerfull enough to run eclipse11:48
marcin_antwith sun and gcj as well11:48
marcin_antbut for a long time I had machine with AMD Duron 1.8 GHz and on even with 1GB ram on this machine eclipse with gcj was unusable11:49
marcin_antso for me - I'm about usability and productability first - then I'm about free software11:49
=== marcin_ant [n=marcin@194.114.146.122] has joined #ubuntu-java
marcin_antdoko_: and of course I'm not against free software but I would like to give simple choice to people - they should have an easy ability to swich between gcj and sun11:56
doko_marcin_ant: you can run the current eclipse package with any java interpreter you want11:57
marcin_antdoko_: ok - current package which is 3.111:57
marcin_antdoko_: and what about 3.2 ?11:58
doko_marcin, no package has a specific java interpreter hardcoded12:00
marcin_antdoko_: but has defined dependencies...12:03
doko_which ones?12:03
marcin_antdoko_: anyway I will try to analyze all these packages more and will talk about it later ok?12:04
marcin_antdoko_: and of course I will try to prepare something for eclipse 3.2 while I need this version if I want to use pydev12:04
doko_pydev is in the archives12:06
marcin_antnew http://pydev.sourceforge.net/ requires eclipse 3.212:09
marcin_antneed to go...12:11
