Yepp, that's true... PDE-build will be retired. Eclipse Platform plans to move to "CBI" (the Common Build Infrastructure) with the next Eclipse Platform release 4.3 (Kepler) in a few months, i.e. that will replace the old PDE build system. CBI itself works on top of Tycho/Maven and this should mak

A quick question, before I proceed to shoot myself in the foot: I'm using make-jpkg to turn Oracle Java into handrolled debs for our use. I want to test Ubuntu tomcat6 (in Ubuntu 10.04). This tries to pull in openjdk6. The reason is a dependency on default-jre-headless. I'd rather it didn't do th
