Bug#728906: pu: package netbeans/7.0.1+dfsg1-6
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
Hi.
The netbeans package is currently broken due to the openjdk-6-jdk bug #720684.
The associated upstream bug JDK-8021890 is marked as "Won't fix". Broken means
that creation of projects is not possible, which I would consider a severe loss
of functionality.
The new version changes the dependency to openjdk-7-jdk and modifies the
netbeans launcher script to use that jdk. This is not to be taken lightly since
it may trigger an openjdk-7-jdk installation when upgrading.
In addition two bugs of severity important are fixed by adding classpath
arguments in the launcher script.
Note that I am not an uploader but will post an RFS to the Debian Java mailing
list if this is accepted.
Sincerely,
Joachim
