[opensuse-buildservice] more recent version of Java / binary RPMs distributed through OBS?
Hi all, Would it be possible to get a more recent version of Java on OBS? The latest OpenJDK (1.7.0-ea-b77) is the only JRE which both doesn't crash with Eclipse, and doesn't crash when compiling. (for me; I'm keeping my fingers crossed though, I'll probably run into another bug sooner than later). If no one wants this mainstream, can someone tell me how I might put binary RPM's (the openjdk site provides i586 and x86) on OBS? It seems building java from source is kinda tricky.

This depends where you want to have it. In the base projects (which hosts the distributions) we don't touch any package after release anymore. If you speak about the Java: project, it is better to ask the maintainers directly. They may not read this list.

We do not allow binary uploads, since in this way all kind of nasty stuff could be uploaded and we actually want to guarantee that the binary comes from the hosted source. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

Thanks, will do. Sorry for the late reply also. As far as preventing binaries, some projects (including one of mine) have noarch jars, since it's a bit difficult to build maven projects without an internet connection. If that could be remedied, I would appreciate it. cheers, Nicholas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
