Hi all,
I'm trying to compile OpenJDK in headless mode without the required X11 libraries. This becomes more common in embedded systems, where e.g. no head is used at all, or where e.g. only wayland is available. For this, I proposed a patch in buildroot, see https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/patch/[email protected]/ . Buildroots policy is to upstream any custom patch when applicable, for which I created https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/28310. The first question, is there any interest to support compilation without X11 in headless mode? If yes, who can create a formal "issue" and pick this up as my "sponsor"? If this PR gets merged, is there any interest to backport this to the relevant LTS distributions? Buildroot ships JDK with the somewhat outdated versions 17 and 21? Kind regards, Thomas Devoogdt
