Damn, that might mean a lot of Android packages are not going to be in bookworm. We're in a very similar boat as Kotlin/Gradle, with upstream still building things with JDK8. We have piles of time-consuming hacks to keep things going.
We're going to loose a bunch of Android things because doclava cannot run newer JDKs. Upstream still uses JDK8 to build it in the current Android code.You mean you lost these after stretch when openjdk-8 was not shipped with buster any more, of course.
android-framework-23 is in bullseye. So I doublechecked, it is actually just a conflict with JDK17, due to the removal of com.sun.javadoc, which was deprecated in JDK11. JDK8 would cover that though.
I have no idea how much work it'd be to port to the new API https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1011567 .hc
