#34509: fail to upgrade openjdk6_bootstrap b16-r1_0 with broken files
---------------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: flier.lu@… | Owner: landonf@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.1.0
Resolution: | Keywords: rev-upgrade
Port: openjdk6_bootstrap |
---------------------------------+-------------------------
Comment (by landonf@…):
The OpenJDK ports predate the official Oracle Mac-Port entirely. The
bootstrap port is likely unnecessary now, and the main OpenJDK port should
be replaced with an openjdk7 port -- Oracle has never officially supported
openjdk6 on Mac OS X, so unless someone else wants to step into the role
of JDK hacking, it's a *lot* of work to keep it running, and I'm unlikely
to have time to do so.
I would be happy to look at patches or offer any advice I can on bringing
over openjdk7 (or updating openjdk6, if you're feeling a bit more brave).
