Bug#580170: [Help] Trying to upgrade mkgmap but failed with Java problem

[Andreas Tille]

Hi,

I updated the packaging of mkgmap in SVN

   svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-grass/packages/mkgmap/trunk

to recent packaging standards and latest upstream version.
Unfortunately the build failed with


/usr/bin/time --format 'Real: %E, %S+%U' java -XX:+UseCompressedOops -Xmx700m -cp build/classes uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main --tdbfile --family-id=909 --series-name="other map"  --description='A test map' /opt/data/uk-071010-1.osm.gz
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: uk/me/parabola/mkgmap/main/Main

Could not find the main class: uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main. Program will exit.
Command exited with non-zero status 1
Real: 0:00.04, 0.00+0.03
make[1]: *** [makemap] Error 1


My guess is that this might be a quite simple problem for a Java expert
who is comfortable with build.xml.

Any hint to revitalise this de-facto orphaned OSM tool?

Kind regards

       Andreas.
