Hi,
Bellow is the watch file that I have been using for openjdk-11 in
Ubuntu which was not copied to Debian. It tracks the upstream tarballs
that RedHat has been generating since they got project leadership for
OpenJDK 11. Kudos to RedHat for such tarballs!
version=4
opts=pgpmode=auto https://openjdk-sources.osci.io/openjdk11/
openjdk@ANY_VERSION@@ARCHIVE_EXT@
They only provide tarballs for official releases, so one would find
only "GA" equivalent tags there. My aim is to use those tarballs to
generate Ubuntu security updates for our openjdk-11 package. I would
appreciate feedback on why this is better or worse than following the
mercurial tags for the official releases. The advantage I see is that
the tarballs are signed and do not need to be repacked, the downside
being that such watch file cannot track "pre"-releases (as that helps
testing the pre-releases) and won't work for openjdk-12 or openjdk-13
as Oracle does no such tarballs releases.
And compared to the "previous" way of updating openjdk-11 (ie. running
"debian/rule get-orig") it won't clear up the tree from some system
libraries - I don't find that to be a problem for builds, in all the
tests I did the libraries don't get used due to the configure flags we
(already) set. Matthias did mention something about the licenses from
those libraries. I tested adding Files-Excluded rules to
debian/copyright, which worked okay-ish: libjavajpeg required manually
listing files as a couple need to be kept, so does not scale that well
when new files get added (somebody will need to notice it and manually
add them to the list).
Emmanuel and Paul,
Great work on getting a watch file that works with the mercurial tags!
I know it is only meant to tracks ga, but with a few tweaks it can be
used to track pre-releases which might help testing those.
Regards,
Tiago
