Bug#894290: gradle should raise the source/target level to the minimum supported by the default JDK

2018-10-10 Thread Emmanuel Bourg
Control: severity -1 wishlist

I'm downgrading the severity because this isn't actionable for now
(implementation suggestions are welcome) and we need
gradle-debian-helper 2.0 and gradle 4.4 in testing. The source/target
level of the affected packages should be updated separately.

I don't know if this can be addressed at the gradle-debian-helper helper
(I have no idea how to do that). The same issue has been fixed directly
in Ant and Maven (plexus-compiler actually, so it sounds logical to
modify Gradle as well. Note that the behavior of the build tool is
altered only when Debian builds are detected (the Ant patch checks if
the DEB_BUILD_ARCH environment variable is specified before altering the
source/target level).

Control: reassign -1 gradle-debian-helper 1.6

I would say this is not the fault of Gradle itself, but it the tricks can be 
provided by `gradle-debian-helper`. We shouldn't modify the behavior of the 
build tools too much.

Let's keep the severity as is for now, as FTBFS is quite serious indeed.

Bug#894290: gradle should raise the source/target level to the minimum supported by the default JDK

2018-03-28 Thread Adrian Bunk
Package: gradle
Version: 3.4.1-3
Severity: serious
Control: affects -1 src:libsejda-eventstudio-java src:mockito

https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/libsejda-eventstudio-java.html
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/mockito.html

error: Source option 1.5 is no longer supported. Use 1.6 or later.
error: Target option 1.5 is no longer supported. Use 1.6 or later.

18:48 < bunk> ebourg: gradle seems to work now with Java 9. Is gradle supposed 
to also raise the source/target level of the package to be built, or are 
  these bugs in the affected packages?
18:48 < bunk> Example: 
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/mockito.html
18:50 < ebourg> bunk: Good catch, Gradle should indeed raise the source/target 
level as well.
18:50 < ebourg> to 1.7 at least


The severity might appear inflated, but there should be an RC bug
somewhere for FTBFS issues.
