Package: xerces-j
Version: 1.4.4-4
Severity: important
Hi,
jikes is orphaned, unmaintained, and buggy and therefore we are trying
to remove it from the archive. xerces-j currently
build-depends on jikes. Could you please try to build with one of the
other java compilers and remove the jikes build-depends? I've tried it
with openjdk-6-jdk and it seems to work fairly well but does still have
some issues.
Thank you,
Barry deFreese
