Description Per Bothner 2017-03-01 18:02:39 UTC
Description of problem:
The jline package uses jline2, but jline3 was released last year.
The JLine2 site (https://github.com/jline/jline2/) says
"JLine 2.x development has come to an end, and users are encouraged to investigate the use of JLine 3.x instead."

Additional info:

JLine3 is highly incompatible with Jline2.  Most class and package names have changed. (It seems a bigger relative change than Python2 vs Python3.)

It may take a while for application to switch over jline2 to jline3.
So perhaps there should be a separate jline3 package, essentially independent of the jline2 package.

Comment 1 Per Bothner 2017-03-01 20:50:47 UTC
I just noticed:
"Review Request: jline3 - JLine is a Java library for handling console input"
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1426333

So kind of a duplicate.

Comment 2 Per Bothner 2017-03-01 20:53:33 UTC
It might be reasons to add CC's etc to 1426333 and then close this as a duplicate.

Comment 3 Mat Booth 2017-03-01 21:04:03 UTC
Aha, well spotted. I will mark this as a duplicate.
