You *do* have miriads of jakarta-XXX packages because jakarta represents the org which produces the code in question (likewise you have classpathx-XXX packages) I believe the perl-XXXX are close to being a cpan-XXXX synonym. IMHO the prefix means "code closely associated to project foo", either because foo is the upstream project or it's a well-known extension of foo which can easily be found from foo website. But in the end it's a packager preference. -- Nicolas Mailhot
