Yeah, I assume there's a packaging repository or something around somewhere, but I personally don't know how the actual Java packages were maintained. Maybe someone else on the list can weigh in on that. I don't think they were done with java-package, since the Oracle Java packages were maintained for quite some time after java-package was removed from the archive, including packages of versions that would have run into that java-package bug. Unless they were done with a version of java-package that wasn't uploaded, but that seems strange. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
