For opensuse, the requirement would be:

A compiler which can build all our java packages (maybe a quarter of the
jpackage project, so really not that much) in the build system. Not too 
much 1.5 stuff yet in the code base as was pointed out. Mandatory. This
might even be there already.

A java runtime and class library which can run ant (with some optional 
tasks) in the build system. Many people forget this: the compiler is 
only part of the story.  Almost all java packages build with ant, so we 
need to run ant during build. Mandatory.

A java runtime and class library which can run all our packages. From
the build system/packager view: Optional.

Point out _working_ combinations of compiler, runtime, and class library
for all opensuse platforms and these use cases to me, I'd be more than
grateful. Last time I tried (admittedly some time ago) I ended up
finding many interesting test cases for gij by trying to run ant with
it. I'm willing to do this again, as mentioned before, but not before
10.2 is done (read: not this year).

cheers,
Sonja
