Hi list, As you may know, when building OpenJDK, you need OpenJDK, and this bootstrap problem is solved by providing a java binary on anduin.
So far, we have always provided a 64 bit and a 32 bit binary. But more and more people have 64 bit machines, and I myself do not maintain anymore 32 bit (virtual) machines. So, generating a 32 bit binary would involve building a complete LFS-7.10 system + all dependencies for OpenJDK, and then build OpenJDK itself. It is a lot of (wasted, IMHO) time. So would it be OK if we provided only a 64 bit java binary? Note that a java binary can always be obtained from Oracle's site...
