Public bug reported:
I know that sun does not support linux-ppc. But some of the "sun-
java[56]-*" packages are available (but not installable) on PPC, which
may give some false hope to the users.
Would it be possible to distribute packages of the IBM java for the PPC
architecture ? I have been installing it manually for a while, but having a
version ready inside ubuntu repository would make things so much easier...
This might be too much to ask while support for PPC may get dropped soon, in
this case, please at least do not include broken packages of sun's java.
Maybe the ongoing opensourcing of sun's jdk will improve this quite a bit, does
anyone have some extra informations on this ?
Will it mean having the same JDK on every platform in the medium term ?
