Feature added by: Martin Schröder (oneiros) Feature #317761, revision 1 Title: Provide java 8 packages Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Martin Schröder (oneiros) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Java 8 was released in 2014-03; Oracle will remove normal free support of Java 7 in 2015-03. Currently we have only packages for Java 7; if you want Java 8, you have to wrangle with rpms from Oracle (see also https://features.opensuse.org/314729). Since we apparently can't redristribute Oracle's rpms, can we either create or own packages (it's nearly all from OpenJDK anyway) or create packages that pull in Oracle's and configure them? -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/317761
