Hi, Jon Ciesla, Fedora maintainer for the gallery2 package. We've run into a snag*, and I need some assistance. The gallery-2.3-full.zip contains several prebuilt .jar files, which in turn contain prebuild .class files. In fedora, we build from source, and so I am faced with either dropping gallery from Fedora (which I *really* don't want to do) or find a way to build from .java sources.
Is it documented anywhere either in the G2 wiki or in the tarball how to build the entire project from source? I've done svn checkout of trunk, and I'm not sure which subdirectories need to be present at build or even how to do so. I'd like to not have to use the whole 600MB+ trunk checkout if I can avoid it.
I've found trunk/packaging/gallery2/build.php, which appears to do an svn checkout among other things, but I can't find where the .class files contained within the .jar files are build.
I should also point out, in Gallery bug 2585568, that the GPL stipulate that when binaries are shipped, the source must also be made available. I'm sure it is, and I just haven't found it, but others might question the projects adherence to the GPL.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jon
