The relocation errors can be worked around by linking with -Wl,--no-relax, i.e., adding the following in debian/rules: ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH),alpha) export EXTRA_LDFLAGS_ZERO += -Wl,--no-relax endif It seems only openjdk-11 needs this as openjdk-12 built fine without relocation link errors. The build will then fail in the test suite because since openjdk-10 java on the rare occasion locks up on Alpha, falls to 0% CPU usage and never terminates. The test suite seems to reliably trigger that lock up. Disabling the test-suite will get us past that (as it did on the build of openjdk-12) and will still produce a java that for most purposes works. Also the install tries to install jhsdb which is not built on Alpha so that needs to be fixed too. Cheers, Michael.
