Where should I go to ask that the Java JDK/JRE packages be made to require Interactive installation in the same way that the Kernel and PostgreSQL are?
The reason I need this is because installing Java when a program is running causes errors.
Specifically, the upgrade removes the directory containing the time zone files. If you upgrade the JDK while a Java program is running, then any attempts to access time zone data generate an error.
The program I have running is Apache Tomcat.
So, to recap what's happening, when auto updates happen, the jdk gets updated, and while Tomcat keeps running, code that accesses the Timezone data starts throwing errors.
I would really like it if the JDK did NOT install automatically. I suppose an acceptable compromise would be if tomcat is installed, to not do it automatically.
