Hello, I unfortunately discovered today that Eclipse-3.3 won't build against jsch-0.1.36, although I assumed it would. It builds against 0.1.34. Shall I then slot 0.1.34 and 0.1.36? Seems stupid to slot between such minor version revisions, but since upstream breaks API... Else I can restrict Eclipse dependency on jsch to 0.1.34 but this will prevent people to install 0.1.36 - not good. Jean-Noël PS: the reason it does not compile anymore is that on 0.1.36 one function can throw an exception whereas it did not before, and Eclipse code does not expect an exception. I could patch Eclipse but I don't really want to go that way, because: 1) I really wouldn't know how to patch exactly and prefer to leave these stuff to upstream; 2) It may very well be that a lot of the API has changed. PS2: sorry for the repost if some people receive this twice, as I first sent using a non-gentoo adress, and I am not sure it went through.
