We are in progress of deploying a new server and like to start with Java 7.An exact date is hard to give. Coding is finished and it's running for a while now. I now need to update the Virtual Appliance (which will be using Ubuntu 12.04) for VMware, Hyoer-V etc. and update the RPM packages and test the RPMs on various RedHat/CentOS installs. If you are interested I can give you a pre-release version of the Debian packages sooner?
Given the great stability of the pre-releases it would nice to have one to start with ;-)
Are there any other changes beside the Java 7 compatibility?
One "problem" with supporting OpenJDK6 and OpenJDK7 is that I need to change the dependency on a java package: Currently it's: openjdk-6-jre, openjdk-6-jre-headless Afaik I cannot specify an either openjdk-6-jre or openjdk-7-jre dependency. I can see two options: 1. use java6-runtime for the depence. The openjdk-6-jre and openjdk-7-jre package both provide these dependencies 2. Create two meta-packages, djigzo-openjdk-6 and djigzo-openjdk-7 What I like about option 1 is that it works for all java runtimes. However, the downside is that in principle you can install a different Java version which *might* be incompatible. Option 2 requires me to create additional packages which I do not prefer.
The problem of Option 1 would be a missing *-headless package or what kind of trouble do you suspect? Are there any other Java packages like GNU-Java which would provide the java6-runtime dependencies or are you concerned about Djigzo *without* Java 6 support at some day in the future?
