I thought I had found one with few dependencies but looks like it's harder than it appears. Gradle and Groovy will have to be next though. They're pretty critical. If you want to look at gradle, good luck - it looks like all linux distributions I looked at have given up on packaging it properly. Only Arch is providing up-to-date gradle packages, but they're only bundling up the upstream release binaries, which isn't acceptable for fedora. For something easier to start with, I suggest looking at the packages the stewardship-sig group is maintaining: https://decathorpe.fedorapeople.org/stewardship-sig.html#maintained-packages Since almost all other Java packages have disapparated, we're pretty much taking care of the whole base of the Java stack. But we can only provide maintenance on a best-effort basis, so it would be great to have somebody with real-world Java experience look at some of the packages. General information, helper scripts and the ticketing system for our group is hosted here: https://pagure.io/stewardship-sig/ For example, we have a list of outdated packages here: https://decathorpe.fedorapeople.org/stewardship-sig-stats.html There's also a list of Pull Requests that are ready for review: https://decathorpe.fedorapeople.org/stewardship-sig-prs.html This spreadsheet has a broad overview of everything, including some comments on why some updates are blocked: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11RlwsEs-LJgTOrUD1P4LpsvW9icVQrvrU5RFqxUuccY/edit?usp=sharing Hope this helps.
