   * If /usr/bin/java is broken or missing, use $JAVA_HOME/bin/java as a

 -- Ben Burton <bab@debian.org>  Fri, 25 Mar 2005 15:25:34 +1100

2004

jython (2.1.0-19) unstable; urgency=low

   * Replaced /usr/bin/jython with a perl script rewritten from scratch.
     It behaves in much the same way, except that:
       - all command-line options and $JAVA_OPTIONS are scanned for JNI
         library path components (-Djava.library.path=...), which are then
         merged with /usr/lib/jni into a single JNI library path that is
         passed to the java runtime (closes: #278007);
       - all other command-line options of the form -Djava.... are assumed
         to be java options and are thus merged into $JAVA_OPTIONS instead
         (i.e., they are passed to the java runtime and not jython itself).
   * Added /usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages and /usr/lib/site-python to the
     python path (along with /usr/lib/python2.1 which was already present).

 -- Ben Burton <bab@debian.org>  Mon, 25 Oct 2004 18:59:38 +1000

jython (2.1.0-18) unstable; urgency=low

   * Build with -target 1.3 so that jikes doesn't treat "assert" as a keyword.
   * Changed recommends from www-browser to (w3m | www-browser) in jython-doc.
   * Fixed typo in jythonc manpage (closes: #258002).

 -- Ben Burton <bab@debian.org>  Wed, 7 Jul 2004 20:46:25 +1000

jython (2.1.0-17) unstable; urgency=low

   * Use python's pixmap in the debian menu entry.

 -- Ben Burton <bab@debian.org>  Sun, 14 Mar 2004 14:11:15 +1100

jython (2.1.0-16) unstable; urgency=low

   * Build using jikes-gij instead of gcj to avoid crashes under kaffe
     (assertion `e->start_pc <= e->end_pc').

 -- Ben Burton <bab@debian.org>  Sat, 3 Jan 2004 10:47:28 +1100

2003

jython (2.1.0-15) unstable; urgency=low

   * Changed recommends python2.1 to depends - the recommends seems to have
     caused a little too much confusion (closes: #224922).

 -- Ben Burton <bab@debian.org>  Tue, 30 Dec 2003 09:11:52 +1100

jython (2.1.0-14) unstable; urgency=low

   * Build in servlet material now that libservlet2.2-java is back in main.
   * Build in other previously-excluded material that is now supported by gcj.
   * Quit with a polite error message if users try to run jythonc without
     python2.1.
   * Bumped standards-version to 3.6.1.

     (closes: #184838).

 -- Ben Burton <bab@debian.org>  Wed, 27 Aug 2003 13:50:38 +1000

jython (2.1.0-12) unstable; urgency=low

   * Include /usr/lib/jni in JNI path since some JVMs still don't reflect
     java policy.
   * Bumped standards-version to 3.6.0.
   * Slight manpage cleanup.

 -- Ben Burton <bab@debian.org>  Tue, 19 Aug 2003 16:42:36 -0500

jython (2.1.0-11) unstable; urgency=low

   * Builds with -fno-assert.
   * Moving into section python.
   * Bumped standards-version to 3.5.10.0.

 -- Ben Burton <bab@debian.org>  Thu, 5 Jun 2003 10:53:40 +1000

jython (2.1.0-8) unstable; urgency=low

   * Finally get rid of whichjava.  It's only needed for jikes users, and if
     people have /usr/bin/javac pointing to jikes (and not jikes-gij, etc),
     they should have $CLASSPATH set anyway to make javac behave properly.

 -- Ben Burton <benb@acm.org>  Thu, 3 Oct 2002 12:06:19 +1000

jython (2.1.0-7) unstable; urgency=low

   * Added support for passing options to the Java interpreter through

   * Pruned jython dependencies since JVMs are now providing virtual
     java packages.

   * Added /usr/lib to java.library.path since some JVMs don't include it
     by default (closes: Bug#160765).

 -- Ben Burton <benb@acm.org>  Sat, 14 Sep 2002 17:56:37 +1000
