I'd like to request an FFe exception for this update. The underlying libraries upon which netbeans relies have all been updated in intrepid, but the netbeans source itself cannot be built without many of these dependencies. I'm extremely uncomfortable uploading a source which I cannot build on a clean system to the repositories, and so am waiting on source and binary NEW in order to do so. I find the packaging relatively acceptable, and an improvement on the packaging for the previous release of netbeans. If the exception is approved, I'd expect to upload this weekend or so (depending on the build time for the components required for this to build).

Ack from motu-release as long as it doesn't have to go through New again.

Have you checked bug 245545? Is it relevant for this?

[Marek Slama (mslama-email)]

Bug 245545 is about separate NB installer. It has nothing to do with packages so it is not relevant for this.

[Cesare Tirabassi (norsetto)]

OK, I assume you mean there is no incompatibility between this and openjdk then. On this basis I'm confirming the FFe.

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

This has been sitting for two weeks since it was approved. It either needs to get uploaded or re-assessed.
