Bug Description

eclipse-mylyn 3.12.0-2 fails to build from source in Zesty with the following error message:

BUILD FAILED
/usr/lib/eclipse/dropins/sdk/plugins/org.eclipse.pde.build_3.8.1.dist/scripts/build.xml:35: The following error occurred while executing this line:

See https://launchpadlibrarian.net/298782395/buildlog_ubuntu-zesty-amd64.eclipse-mylyn_3.12.0-2_BUILDING.txt.gz for complete build log.

I got the same error message when attempting to build the package on my Zesty vm, but didn't have any problems on Debian Sid. When I saw that the package containing commons-lang mentioned in the error message had an Ubuntu-delta, I wanted to check if this could explain the different results.

I downloaded libcommons-lang-java from Debian and installed it on my Zesty vm. With this package, eclipse-mylyn built successfully. I therefore believe the Ubuntu-delta or a difference in how libcommons-lang-java has been built is causing this issue.

(I've also seen that
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse-egit/3.7.0-2/+build/12457132 and https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse-mylyn-tasks-github/3.3.0-2/+build/12457142 have failed to build with similar error messages, but I don't know for certain if this is related or not.)

Checked back on this and it is still present in Artful. Furthermore, I discovered that attempting to rebuild the current version of eclipse-mylyn will also fail.

It looks like the libcommons-lang-java delta was introduced while it was part of main. It seems to have been demoted to universe a couple of releases ago, so I wonder whether the delta is still required?

Thanks for checking that Hans. I can confirm that dropping the Ubuntu diff causes the build to succeed.

I'm rebuild the packages that (build-)depend on libcommons-java-lang to check if they are affect by this change somehow.

The cause of the FTBFS for eclipse-mylyn seems to be the missing bnd files. I tried to track down why bnd was dropped, but couldn't (so far) find any references to why that was done.

bnd was almost certainly dropped in order to keep it out of main, when main was a closure over build-dependencies and not just runtime dependencies.

Build the revdeps of libcommons-lang-java with the Ubuntu diff dropped. Eclipse-mylyn builds correctly as well as a lot of packages.

I was unable to verify how dropping the Ubuntu diff from libcommons-lang-java affected some of the revdeps because they FTBFS due to an unrelated issue with the surefire-plugin from maven.

  * Drop Ubuntu diff, no longer required and causes other packages
    to fail. LP: #1652759.

With the recently uploaded libcommons-lang-java, eclipse-mylyn 3.12.0-2 (and the others I linked to in description) built successfully on Artful. Thanks :)
