Wow, the exact phrasing is: > Building JDK 8 requires use of a version of JDK 7 that is at Update 7 or > newer. JDK 8 developers should not use JDK 8 as the boot JDK, to ensure that > JDK 8 dependencies are not introduced into the parts of the system that are > built with JDK 7. So: If you intend to develop on JDK 8, don't use JDK 8 as boot JDK. That is, to avoid that building JDK 8 requires JDK 8. We're packagers, we're not the target for neither the warning nor use-case ;) Best regards -- Jens Rehsack - [email protected] -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
