cadencii: FTBFS with make --shuffle=reverse: cp: cannot create regular file './build/java/kr.po': No such file or directory

[Andreas Tille]

Hi,
 
I tried hard to work on bug #1105251 but I actually failed.  I initially
considered to salvage the package cadencii, in accordance with the
Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1].
This package meets the criteria for this process, and I would love to
assist in preserving and maintaining it. As the Salvage process
suggests, here is a list of the criteria that apply, in my opinion:
 
  - NMUs (more than one NMU in a row).
  - Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the
    maintainer.
  - There are QA issues with the package.

Unfortunately I failed fixing this bug.  Since I wanted to conserve my
work in Git and ask for help easily I considered a Git repository would
be helpful inside the Java team I took the liberty to create the Salsa
repository here[2].  In case you might like to work on the problem
yourself outside that team, I'd be more than happy to help you move it
to another location, such as debian/, or wherever you prefer. My goal is
to make it as easy as possible for interested people to work together
smoothly in Git.
 
This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[3] initiative, which
aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through
the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating
packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar
with a consistent Git-based workflow.
 
Kind regards
    Andreas.
