[jira] [Commented] (SSHD-182) source tarball contains additional src directory

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-182?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13453825#comment-13453825 ] 

Guillaume Nodet commented on SSHD-182:
--------------------------------------

The idea for having an additional src directory is that you could lay over the binary and source distribution at the same place without messing with the whole binary distribution.  If that does not seem a good idea, we can remove this, I don't have a strong opinion on that.

> Your source tarball has two levels of folders at the top of the hierarchy:
> apache-sshd-0.7.0/src/
> It is much more common for source tarballs to have only one folder at the top hierarchy and then directly the meat inside, e.g. these files/folders should be directly in apache-sshd-0.7.0/ :
> assembly  LICENSE.txt  NOTICE.txt  pom.xml  src  sshd-core  sshd-pam
> I'd need to tweak my debian packaging tooling a bit to still be able to use the tarball provided by you. You could make it much easier for me if you could remove the extra src/ folder.
