NOTES: ===== * I have switched from generating the java cacerts to depending on p11-kit and make-ca. If you run into build failure at configure due to missing the java cacerts file, the likely issue is that `make-ca` needs to be run before building openjdk8. It will be done automatically when installing p11-kit, if: 1) you have 'runscripts yes' in your prt-get.conf, or 2) supply prt-get with '--install-scripts' commandline argument. * These are the links to the unversioned files: http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/drops/icedtea8/$icedtea_version/{corba,hotspot,jaxp,jaxws,langtools,nashorn,openjdk}.tar.xz The mirrorred and versioned files are merely renamed to prevent signature mismatches and files not being downloaded due to older, unversioned files stopping the correct file from being retrieved. * The manual pages are outside of the normal MANPATH. At this point in time, I see no easy way to move them without conflicting with the opt/jdk port. * These packages exist in my j_v repo (might be nice to have as dependencies): pcsc-lite, lksctp-tools (I need to determine if there is any actual benefit from depending on them). TODO: ==== * Concider generic java packages that allow to have different java env installed and be able to switch between them via script: 'java-choose openjdk8' or 'java-choose jdk' * Do testing beyond just running java programs like eclipse and minecraft. To this end, I now have a jtreg port.
