[Classpathx-javamail] [Fwd: Re: [JPackage-discuss] Re: Status of classpathx-mail, classpath-inetlib, gnu-crypto]

Chris,

We need to get this solved so we can get javamail  (and jaf) on Fedora as
replacements for the non-open source ones.

Would it be possible to have a procedure of regularly importing inetlib sources 
and changing the packages with a script so we have a self contained javamail?

It would still be using inetlib, so not duplicating development.  It would only 
give us a little bit of work here and there.  I believe that with CVS and vendor 
branch imports we can actually do this conversion only once (except for new files).

Regards,
Fernando




P.S.: We have no problems in distributing gnucrypto on Fedora (the same is not 
true for jpackage.org but their packages are mainly intended for Red Hat based 
systems anyway).  I believe Debian is also OK with distributing GNU Crypto.

No, merely installing inetlib is not enough (and it's already taken care
of with the rpm dependency).  It needs to be included in CLASSPATH one
way or another too when using classpathx-mail.
