NOTES:
=====
* I have switched from generating the java cacerts to depending on p11-kit and
make-ca. If you run into build failure at configure due to missing the java
cacerts file, the likely issue is that `make-ca` needs to be run before
building openjdk8. It will be done automatically when installing p11-kit, if:
1) you have 'runscripts yes' in your prt-get.conf, or
2) supply prt-get with '--install-scripts' commandline argument.
* These are the links to the unversioned files:
http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/drops/icedtea8/$icedtea_version/{corba,hotspot,jaxp,jaxws,langtools,nashorn,openjdk}.tar.xz
The mirrorred and versioned files are merely renamed to prevent signature mismatches and files
not being downloaded due to older, unversioned files stopping the correct file from being retrieved.
* The manual pages are outside of the normal MANPATH. At this point in time,
I see no easy way to move them without conflicting with the opt/jdk port.
* These packages exist in my j_v repo (might be nice to have as dependencies):
pcsc-lite, lksctp-tools
(I need to determine if there is any actual benefit from depending on them).
TODO:
====
* Concider generic java packages that allow to have different java env installed
and be able to switch between them via script:
'java-choose openjdk8'
or
'java-choose jdk'
* Do testing beyond just running java programs like eclipse and minecraft.
To this end, I now have a jtreg port.
