slachiewicz opened a new issue, #1823: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-mvnd/issues/1823
mvnd 2.x needs Java 17 for the daemon, but `native/` still ships `mvndnative` for four 32-bit targets where Java 17 is scarce or absent. I propose dropping them on master only, in one PR labelled `removed`. | Target | Java 17+ builds (October 2026) | OS status | |---|---|---| | Windows x86 | Temurin 17 and Zulu 17 only; no 21 or 25 from any vendor | Windows 11 has no 32-bit edition; Windows 10 consumer extended security updates end 2026-10-13 | | Linux x86 | Liberica 17 and 21, Zulu 17; no 25 | | | Linux arm, `-mfloat-abi=softfp` (armel) | none found | | | FreeBSD x86 | ports for 17 and 21; `java/openjdk25` does not list i386 | FreeBSD 15 dropped i386 | The change removes these targets on master: - `Windows/x86/mvndnative.dll`, `Linux/x86/libmvndnative.so`, `Linux/arm/libmvndnative.so` and `FreeBSD/x86/libmvndnative.so`; - their `native-all` entries and target blocks in `native/Makefile`; - their entries in `known_targets` and their blocks in `native/Makefile.common`. It keeps these targets: - Linux armv6 and armv7 (hard-float): Raspberry Pi OS ships OpenJDK 17 for ARMv6, and Liberica ships 17, 21 and 25 for 32-bit ARM. - Linux ppc64le and FreeBSD x86_64: Java 17, 21 and 25 exist for both. - All four targets on `mvnd-1.x`, which targets Java 8; Temurin, Zulu and Liberica all ship Java 8 for 32-bit Windows and Linux x86. 32-bit macOS was dropped in #1820 (master) and #1821 (1.x). #1822 documents the platform table in the README.
