Bug#1023237: openjdk-11: Keep out of testing and stable
Le 17/04/2024 à 09:54, Timo Röhling a écrit : FastDDSGen currently depends on OpenJDK 11 (or more precisely, any OpenJDK before 15) because it needs the Nashorn JavaScript engine, so could OpenJDK 11 be kept in trixie for the time being? That's a dead end, if OpenJDK 11 is kept there will be no incentive to update softwares to follow the evolution of Java, and the old JDK will just hang there forever. Alternatively, someone could help me package the standalone version: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1038142 Packaging Nashorn is the way to go in this case. You can post to the debian-java mailing list to get some help with the packaging. Emmanuel Bourg

Bug#1023237: openjdk-11: Keep out of testing and stable
Is there a better reason this should be kept out of testing and stable? Many users find this openjdk-11 helpful and necessary for stability/continuity reasons over the current LTS. Security updates will last for 3+ more years so I don't see any reason why this should be held back from stable and testing.

Source: openjdk-11 Version: 11.0.4+11-1 Severity: serious Justification: should not migrate to testing or stable any more openjdk-17 is now the default JDK, but openjdk-11 is still required for bootstrapping JVM-based languages like Kotlin or Scala in unstable. Therefore the package should no longer migrate to testing or stable anymore.
