Comment 12 for bug 150484

Daniel,

Since the javac tasks in build.xml files doesn't specify target VM, if you use Java 6, the resulting binary will not be compatible with Java 5 VM. So I preferred the common denominator.

By the way, I forgot to mention. Upstream provides source in .zip format. It needs to be repackaged as tar.gz along with source for pdf-transcoder from fop svn. This was also case with batik 1.6 source and is documented in README.Debian-source. I have only improved the processed by adding get-orig-source target (as per recommended by persia) to accomplish it. Make sure that you verify this particular part of the build process.
