Description Michael Simacek 2014-03-16 17:51:25 UTC 
Description of problem:
javax.jsp:jsp-api and javax.servlet.jsp:javax.servlet.jsp-api artifacts are provided by both tomcat-jsp-2.2-api and glassfish-jsp[-api]. Because requires generator doesn't specify versions, there should be only one provide of given artifact. If the artifact is provided by multiple packages, it can lead to breakage of packages that depend on different version of the artifact than the version pulled in by yum (which is not predictable). Glassfish is the preferred implementation according to Java Packaging Guidelines [1].Please drop the aliases.

Comment 1 Ivan Afonichev 2014-03-25 22:36:52 UTC 
tomcat rpm provides nothing javax*:

[van@van-ssd tomcat]$ grep '^Provides:' tomcat.spec 
Provides: jsp = %{jspspec}
Provides: jsp22
Provides: servlet = %{servletspec}
Provides: servlet6
Provides: servlet3
Provides: el_1_0_api = %{epoch}:%{version}-%{release}
Provides: el_api = %{elspec}


Or you are talking about maven depmaps?
Comment 2 Michael Simacek 2014-03-27 09:15:30 UTC 
Yes, I mean the provides that are autogenerated from Maven depmaps.
These are the provides of tomcat-jsp-2.2-api in rawhide:
jsp = 2.2
jsp22
mvn(javax.servlet.jsp:javax.servlet.jsp-api) = 7.0.52
mvn(javax.servlet:jsp-api) = 7.0.52
mvn(org.apache.tomcat:tomcat-jsp-api) = 7.0.52
mvn(org.eclipse.jetty.orbit:javax.servlet.jsp) = 7.0.52
osgi(javax.servlet.jsp) = 2.2.0
tomcat-jsp-2.2-api = 7.0.52-1.fc21

Line 459 in the specfile:
%add_maven_depmap JPP-tomcat-jsp-api.pom tomcat-jsp-api.jar -f "tomcat-jsp-api" -a "javax.servlet.jsp:javax.servlet.jsp-api,javax.servlet:jsp-api,org.eclipse.jetty.orbit:javax.servlet.jsp"

The javax.servlet:jsp-api and javax.servlet.jsp:javax.servlet.jsp-api artifact coordinates are added as aliases with the -a option.
Please change the line to:
%add_maven_depmap JPP-tomcat-jsp-api.pom tomcat-jsp-api.jar -f "tomcat-jsp-api" -a "org.eclipse.jetty.orbit:javax.servlet.jsp"
