It looks like our default Docker image that we ship with Yetus is
failing to build because it can’t download stuff from Oracle. Given that we
probably should do at least something to fix it :), I thought it might be time
to actually just upgrade the image completely. I’ve filed YETUS-512 which does
the following:
* Switches the base OS to Ubuntu Xenial 16.04
* Removes all of the Oracle JDK bits
* Switches the JDK to OpenJDK 8 (Headless)
* Removes a bunch of hacks that are no longer necessary
As a result, this one builds significantly faster and is a tad bit
smaller. If we think that’s too aggressive, then the alternative is to just
remove the Oracle JDK7 bits from the current image. Either way, we’re looking
at an incompatible/disruptive change.
Sidenote: I’m currently trying to go through all of the 0.5.0 open
issues. My goal is to work towards a release relatively soon, but no promises.
Haven’t decided yet whether I’m going to tackle some of the bigger issues yet.
Thanks.
