It was removed when jar in gcc had been renamed to fastjar and there were no conflicting files between gcc-java and java-sun. So there is a reason to separate jar again. > The other solution would be putting Obsoletes without Conflicts in each > package so there would be no problems on builders (installation deps based > would work) ... IMO gcc-java shouldn't obsolete java-sun. java-gcj-compat (with java/javac wrappers) can do it. -- Jakub Bogusz http://qboosh.pl/ _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
