Split devel and a "backports" project

Hallo, I've got a request from Frank to add CentOS, Mandriva and openSUSE 11.4 into Java:packages. I personally do not like this idea - J:p is intended to be a devel project for Factory. On the other hand, there might be someone will be interested and will take a care. And I don't want to block our community from that. So I am thinking about following concept 1.) create new Java:Factory project -> this will be the devel project for Factory, so only openSUSE_Factory repository will be added 2.) make project link [1] from Java:Factory - Java:???. In this project more targets can be enabled and it can have more maintainers taking a care about such distributions. 3.) the changes in Java:??? will be submitted back to :Factory. If not, then :??? project won't be synced with :Factory. This is a responsibility of those will do the change. I'm waiting on a comments, especially some nice name instead of ???, which is probably not allowed in OBS ;-) [1] http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Concept_project_linking Regards Michal Vyskocil

java-devel 1.6 needed in oS12.2
by Denny Beyer 22 Jan '13

Dear all, for the Scala package (devel:languages:scala) to compile successfully, it is required to use java 1.6, as java 1.7 does give swing compile errors according to the documentation. Tests confirmed that. According to the wiki, adding a repo as target is the prefered way. However, it results in confusion, which version should actually be used during compile time. Project is: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=devel%3Alanguages%3Ascala Please recommend how to deal with this issue. thanks. denny -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-java+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-java+owner(a)opensuse.org
