There seems to be Netbeans flatpak (https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.apache.netbeans). I admit there are still issues we face both in Eclipse code and in flatpak(portals) like https://github.com/flathub/org.eclipse.Java/issues/3 but overall this has better ROI so consider trying it. P.S. This is not trying to discourage you from packaging Netbeans as RPM but rather a general warning that unless upstream developers are convinced this is important delivery channel it's really touch to achieve it. > > - Mehdi > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > -- Alexander Kurtakov Red Hat Eclipse Team
