Package: java-package
Version: 0.27
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The priority of the java-gcj-compat* packages is 1040 which is larger
than the priority of the packages created with java-package (313-315).
It appears that if people take the effort to build private .debs of
these non-free Java packages, then they should get priority over the
other free packages that come in the main Debian distribution,
otherwise, the non-free Java's are not used by default.
I ran this in the java-package-0.27 source directory to increase the
priorities by a factor of 10 and built my private version of
java-package to give Sun's JDK priority.
perl -w -i -p -e 's/priority=(\d+)/priority=$+0/' */install
