Hello there, the package includes the Java libraries of Jena only, but not their command line utilities which I often use for testing and development. Would it be possible to include them too? Maybe in a separate package, like "libapache-jena-bin". Best regards, David Haller

However I am not sure if all these scripts will work correctly because we ship only a subset of all apache-jena artifacts in Debian. In fact the package is currently just a dependency of openrefine. Could you try to install those scripts into /usr/local/bin (for testing purposes) and report back if they work as you would expect them to work when you use libapache-jena-java from Debian? I would also call the binary package apache-jena-bin and omit the lib prefix because this one is reserved for libraries only. Regards, Markus
On second thought, maybe we can just ship the shell scripts with libapache- jena-java. It is an arch:all package anyway and space is not an issue here.
Hello, yes, those are the scripts I meant. Unfortunately, they would need some tweaking as the classpaths are different in Debian than expected by upstream, the Jena libraries are in /usr/share/java while the scripts look in $JENA_HOME/lib/*. Also, some scripts are badly named and conflict with other Debian packages, e.g. "utf8" is also present in fonty-rg. Best regards, David Am 24.06.22 um 22:31 schrieb Markus Koschany:
