Hi, I'm trying to make a java package build on all debian architectures. As the source code needs java 6 to compile, it fails on some architectures when just depending on default-jdk. These are kfreebsd-* and sparc, where default-jdk installs gcj instead of openjdk.
Depending on openjdk-6-jdk or openjdk-7-jdk would probably fix that issue. (jdk 6 would suffice, but as it's already quite old and missing from jessie, depending on openjdk-7-jdk would be better, I guess) Therefore, I'd like to build-depend on openjdk-7-jdk | java-6-sdk. But debian java policy states "Packages must be built with default-jdk". I'd guess that where policy conflicts with reality, reality wins. But still, as I'm not experienced in java packaging, I'd like to hear your opinion. Are there better alternatives?
