Thanks! I followed option 2, and it worked great. I didn't quite understand
what %mvn_install was doing before, but I think I'm beginning to understand
it. I now understand it to be doing:
1. copying artifacts from target/ to %{buildroot}
2. generating depmap metadata
3. creating .mfiles
Correct, and:
4. injecting some fields into JAR manifest
I guess it's inspecting byte code to determine if the code is
noarch or
arch-specific (because JNI/JNA)? I guess I just have to be careful when I
manually perform these steps that the jar is installed to the correct
directory (either %_javadir or %_jnidir). Using an empty jar would make
%mvn_install think the jar goes in %_javadir. Am I understanding this
correctly?
Yes, that's correct.
