Recent versions of JUnit4 have backward compatible layer that is able to emulate JUnit versions 3.x.x. We currently have 4.8.2 in rawhide thanks to Alexander Kurtakov. I have done some testing of this backward compatibility and I was able to successfully replace junit with recent junit4 and build packages: * jakarta-commons-logging * jakarta-commons-io * jakarta-commons-dbcp * eclipse (unmodified spec, but replaced junit.jar symlink in /usr/share/java with junit4.jar) This means we can begin phasing out separate junit4 package and basically overwrite junit package with it. This will be done probably in the next few days. New version of junit will of course offer backward compatible symlinks, so no modifications to your packages should be necessary. Problems might occur anyway, so take this as a heads-up. junit package in devel is currently orpahned and I plan to take it and do these changes, unless anyone has conflicting ideas. Other ideas are welcome too of course. -- Stanislav Ochotnicky <sochotnicky@xxxxxxxxxx> Associate Software Engineer - Base Operating Systems Brno PGP: 71A1677C Red Hat Inc. http://cz.redhat.com
