- Some packages need to be updated (or compat packages added) to be compatible with IDEA requirements
- This is the only change that touches existing stuff
- IDEA itself has to be packaged
- The build system adjusted not to use bundled prebuilt code
How To Test
(TBD: Does this paragraph need to be more specific?)
- Install

User Experience
Probably not relevant here.
Dependencies
Since IDEA itself is a new package, nothing depends on it. Here are idea's requirements [1]:
Core
| Package | From where | Notes | Ticket (review, etc.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| intellij-idea | Needs to be created | In works | |
| cglib | Pull from JPackage | Need 2.1.3 version | |
| nanoxml | Pull from JPackage | ||
| picocontainer | Pull from JPackage | ||
| xmlbeans | Pull from JPackage | ||
| xstream | Pull from JPackage (done: [2]) | Depends on jettison (508521), cglib (see above) | |
| groovy | Packaged by upstream | Far from conforming | |
| jna | Needs -examples subpackage | 532208 | |
| junit4 | Needs update to 4.6 | Need to check dependencies | 532210 |
| microba | New package | Already done | 532205 |
| jgraph | New package | Need to review | 532203 |
Plugins
TBD. No plugin is a hard dependency.
| Package | From where | Notes | Ticket (review, etc.) |
|---|
Contingency Plan
None necessary. If the work will not be finished early enough, he existing packaging work does not need to be reverted.
Documentation
The packaging will be well described in comments, this wiki page will be regularly updated with progress and serve as overview of what is done to anyone who would like to contribute.
Release Notes
TBD.
