[jira] Commented: (THRIFT-71) Debian packaging for thrift

["David Reiss (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-71?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12919400#action_12919400 ] 

David Reiss commented on THRIFT-71:
-----------------------------------

I vote -1 to putting a debian-specific directory at the top level of the Thrift source tree.  If everyone else is against me on this, I'll give in, but it seems like bad practice to clutter up the top level of our tree with system-specific stuff.

> We're using thrift on Debian, so I wanted to have a package for easier
> installation by other users.
> Attached is a patch to add packaging for debian to the
> thrift-20080411p1 release.  It includes two bug fixes to make the
> tests work reliably: 1) adding /usr/share/java/commons-lang.jar to the
> search path for the java tests, and 2) sleeping 1 second after
> starting the server for the python tests.  If the patch is accepted,
> the maintainer should probably be set to the thrift mailing list,
> rather than the example mailing list address I used.
