Description of problem: I'm trying to package xstream, a java library to serialize objects to XML (and back). It depends upon the WebDAV component of maven-wagon. I would like this component to be included in Fedora's maven-wagon package. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.0-0.1.a5.3jpp.1 How reproducible: Always. Additional info: Sorry Matt -- I should have filed here first.
The version of maven-wagon currently in fedora doesn't have the WebDAV component. To get the new version with WebDAV support will require bringing in a bunch of new dependencies (WebDAV, slide (or possible jackrabbit), and all of their dependencies). Does xstream actually need WebDAV? is it used as part of the core, as a separate plugin, or just during building (ie for writing tests, or for running some other maven plugin that not a requirement).
I don't know if it actually needs it or not; I don't know much about maven. I followed the maven java packaging guidelines template spec, and the builds fails because it's missing the WebDAV provider.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Closing as I don't care about this package (xstream) anymore.
