AlanBellcould someone point me at some background reading on the removal of Sun Java from Lucid, and it's possible inclusion in the partner repo10:11
AlanBellI am a bit concerned that nothing that depends or build-depends on it can be built for Universe, or even for a PPA10:12
AlanBelland as it isn't yet in the partner repo for Lucid I can't do any testing, it also impacts other things like Alfresco10:13

persiaAlanBell: Nothing in the archive depends or build-depends on it (or if it does, we'll fix that shortly).13:40
persiaAlanBell: Regarding other impacted things, do they not work against default-jre?  If so, how not, and have you filed bugs?13:40

AlanBellthanks13:49
AlanBelllooking at a few things like freemind for example I see it is an alternate dependency13:50
AlanBellthe alfresco-community package that is in the partner repo for Jaunty does depend on it. I am investigating building that to get it somehow into Lucid, even if via a PPA13:52
persiaOh, it's an alternate dependency for all sorts of stuff, but the primary dep should always be default-jre, which exists, so the alternate dep is never chosen except explicitly.13:55
persiaTry depending or build-depending on default-jde / default-jdk instead.  That package is actually maintained.13:55
AlanBellok, will do13:56
