Thank you so much for the work you put into these packages, and I'm really sorry I couldn't be more help. After struggling with our Java packages for quite a bit, the neuro-sig reached a similar conclusion---that they're just too much work or just pretty much impossible to keep in Fedora. We've now accepted that documenting Java tools and asking users to install them directly from upstream is the most we can manage. -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" (He / Him / His) | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London
