From 1910567fed5b49727e1e7e19c6a3530d1fb0a9ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Le Cuirot Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2016 22:37:12 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] profiles: Mask Java 6 Bye bye Java 6! If you really still need it then gnu_andrew will continue to maintain icedtea:6 in java-overlay but it is not supported by Java team at all. IBM's JVM is still alive but downloads are behind a registration wall and Java team does not wish to support it. haubi may provide IBM updates though probably only for ppc-aix. Removal in 30 days. --- profiles/package.mask | 17 +++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+) diff --git a/profiles/package.mask b/profiles/package.mask index 8d9c709b8ab4..ae7cf973aeca 100644 --- a/profiles/package.mask +++ b/profiles/package.mask @@ -30,6 +30,23 @@ #--- END OF EXAMPLES --- +# James Le Cuirot (14 Mar 2016) +# Bye bye Java 6!
