Hello,
Hi!
- what to do with openjdk-6?
This one's a bit tricky for us, as openjdk-7-jdk and openjdk-7-jre pull
in 73 additional packages, compared to openjdk-6-jdk and openjdk-6-jre.
There are a bunch of GNOME and MESA packages, as well as a few other
desktop related utilities, which serve no purpose on a server.
openjdk-7-jre-headless and openjdk-7-jre-lib don't do that, thankfully.
I agree, though, that openjdk-6 should be phased out anyway.
It's possible that we can phase out openjdk-*-jre and openjdk-*-jdk, and
require that our customers do their development elsewhere, I'll check
into that. If so, it should be easy to skip openjdk-6 entirely.
