As the subject mentions the main feature in new javapackages-tools is improvement of build-classpath, build-jar-repository and related functions to support Maven artifacts in form of: groupId:artifactId[:extension[:classifier]][:version] You can also mix and match so this is valid: build-classpath junit:junit commons-lang For Maven artifacts the dependencies are added transitively. This obviously requires XMvn, but it's a soft requirement. As long as you don't use Maven artifacts in the scripts that is... Other things: * Support for SCLs in macros, scrips etc which needed serious rework so bugs may be present bug backward compatibility should be preserved * Man pages for RPM macros (also in previous release, just forgot to mention it) * 230 tests for pom_ macros, provides/requires generators, backend library, mvn_* scripts.
