Bug#180929: ftp.debian.org: Remove jdk1.1 packages from archive
Package: ftp.debian.org
Version: 20030214
Severity: serious
Packages: jdk1.1, jdk1.1-native, jdk1.1-dev jdk1.1-native-dev
They're non-free, they're buggy because the ftp-masters refused to
even look at an upload for over six months, and I have no enthusiasm
for continuing to pursue support for Sun jdks of any kind within
Debian.
If the ftp-masters really believe that Debian can't redistribute the
1.1.8v3-1 packages I uploaded last year then they should have already
removed these packages. Debian has been exposed to the same legal
issues for five years.
