= !GeoTools packaging =

Packaging !GeoTools requires a lot of dependencies, many of them that are not up to date, are not maven compatible or simply are not packaged.

=== What we need to package ===

==== These may have licence problem: ====

 * JAI optional - Oracle license

 * ImageIO optional - Oralce license

 * ImageIO-ext Optional - Orace license

 * DB2 Jdbc driver Optional - IBM license

 * DB2 Express-C Optional - IBM license

 ==== Ignored dependencies ====

 * wagon-webdav - 1.0-beta2 - 1.0.0 in Trusty

 ===== Ignore doc packages =====

 ==== Packages not available in Trusty ====

The first number is the version available, the second is the one needed.
If there's only one number, it means it needs to be packaged.

 == !GeoTools Module Packaging ==

Since building !GeoTools actually creates many .jar which are all !GeoTools module which can be used independently, we can also package them separately.

Using Maven-Debian-Helper, not much needs to be done. Every module has its own pom.xml. They use a parent pom.xml where some dependencies version are set so you might have to look into it and set them in the module's pom.xml.

With that done, running mh_make should work fine.

The point of packaging modules individually was to try to get just enough to be able to build GeoServer and because apps don't necessarily need the 100+ !GeoTools lib to work.
