Bug#732282: stop building java for sparc, sparc64, s390, kfreebsd-any

2013-12-16 Thread Matthias Klose
Package: java-common
Version: 0.50
Severity: serious
Tags: jessie, sid

openjdk-7 currently ftbfs on sparc, sparc64, s390, kfreebsd-any. So please
either remove the default-* packages on these archs, or fall back to gcj.

 - the hotspot port for linux sparc isn't maintained anymore
   by upstream.  If a porter is interested, maybe investigate
   how to build the zero vm on these architectures.

 - s390 needs an update of the s390 debian specific patch. Not
   working on this myself.

 - the debian kfreebsd patches need an update.  I don't think
   it's feasible to burden the openjdk maintainers or the
   security team with patch maintenance.  I understand that
   the bsd support is found upstream in openjdk-8, so maybe
   try that again for the next upstream version.

There is no point in trying to update an s390 specific patch while this
architecture doesn't exist anymore in jessie and sid, replaced by s390x.
This patch should just be removed and s390 removed from the
architectures handled in java-common.
