Source: plplot Version: 5.10.0+dfsg2 Severity: normal User: debian-j...@lists.debian.org Usertags: default-java9
This package fails to build with default-jdk pointing to openjdk-9-jdk. The wiki has some common problems and their solutions: https://wiki.debian.org/Java/Java9Pitfalls An automated tool has decided that this package will build fine if the -source and -target options are changed to 1.6; no additional changes are required. This was done by building with a compiler that changed the settings automatically, then the real compiler, and diffing the results. This modified compiler will never be part of Debian. ant and Maven are supposed to do this for you, and I've tried to check that this package is not using ant or Maven correctly, but I might have messed up.
