Hi,

Is there a plan to package IcedTea 2.x for 12.2? It seems that there is momentum building to move to JDK 7 by default [1].

Hallo,

yes, there is. I pretty hope that I will start on it next week, so we can have openjdk7 package for 12.2.

Regards Michal Vyskocil

Sounds great. Let me know when/if you need an extra hand for testing.

Robert

Sure, I will announce it when it will be ready. Regards Michal Vyskocil

If there is, I'd like to help, but the spec file [2] is a bit more complicated than the ones I usually work with.  Here are a few questions:

1. Some defines are unused ; what is their purpose?

%define snapshot_date 20110729 %define fedorazip  openjdk-7-fcs-src-%{openjdkver}-%{openjdkdate}.zip

2. There is a FIXME regarding mauve tests and JDK 7 ; how can I verify if this is still needed?

# Mauve test suite # FIXME: Is this applicable for 7? Source10:  mauve-%{mauvedate}.tar.gz Source11:  mauve_tests

3. What is the process of refreshing the sources for a new version?

I assume that I will retrieve the icedtea archive from http://icedtea.classpath.org/download/source/ , and then refresh the openjdk, corba etc snapshots, originally

%define openjdk_snapshot 0a76e5390e68 %define corba_snapshot 4d9e4fb8af09 %define hotspot_snapshot b28ae681bae0 %define jaxp_snapshot 948e734135ea %define jaxws_snapshot a2ebfdc9db7e %define jdk_snapshot 2054526dd141 %define langtools_snapshot 9b85f1265346

But how do I know which snapshot to use for a specific icedtea release?

(More questions may follow)

Thanks,

Robert
