Hello I would like to see if we could finally try to stabilize java7 on Gentoo as some external tools start to require it.
There is currently this tracker opened: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=384609 I am unsure why: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483018 should block the stabilization as we can have multiple java versions installed due slots The tracker list two broken packages that would need either patching or to be forced to use older slots and this one: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=515830 That looks more important. Then, I also wonder about what implementations are we meant to look for this stabilization. Should we look for bugs affecting icedtea-bin and also oracle's implementation? (I was wondering if the tracker was really collecting all the issues :/) Thanks
