[Debichem-devel] Bug#1011534: opsin: FTBFS with OpenJDK 17 due to new javadoc layout

Source: opsin
Version: 2.6.0-2
Severity: important

opsin fails to build with OpenJDK 17 because the dh_installdocs override
in debian/rules attempts to replace the embedded copy of jQuery, but the
layout of the javadoc has changed:

  dh_installdocs
  ln -fs /usr/share/javascript/jquery/jquery.js /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/libopsin-java-doc/usr/share/doc/libopsin-java/api/jquery/external/jquery/jquery.js
  ln: failed to create symbolic link '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/libopsin-java-doc/usr/share/doc/libopsin-java/api/jquery/external/jquery/jquery.js': No such file or directory
  make[1]: *** [debian/rules:17: override_dh_installdocs] Error 1



The javadoc packages are rarely used (the popcon of libopsin-java-doc has
never exceeded 5 in 10 years) and they induce a maintenance burden,
I strongly recommend removing this package.
