It seems when pushing this I had a streak of bad SRU descriptions and I want to fix that, so I added the description even though as you assumed for the FTBFS that was all quite clear.
Also the build in proposed is already done and working now, so we can set verified. ** Description changed: + [Impact] + + * Newer Java dropped the javah tool, instead javac -h has to be used. + * This package was built when javah was around, but since the java + updates to openjdk-10 FTBFS + * Fix is a backport from upstream that uses javac -h if javah is not + available + + [Test Case] + + * Correctly build again in Ubuntu + * Proven on the PPA + + [Regression Potential] + + * If people rebuilt intentionally with other Java versions that might now + behave slightly different. But since it is conditional "if javah exists + as before, otherwise use javac -h" it it not even changing those + really. + Eventually the real regression came with the bump to a newer java + version which was done long ago, this only cleans up the FTBFS. + + [Other Info] + + * n/a + + --- + FTBFS is due to http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/313 which makes jdk >=10 unusable for the libguestfs code that is in Bionic.
