Tracking bug text
This is a bug to track overall progress on Headless Java Change[1]. java-headless subpackage has been split off from OpenJDK package to enable dependency chain simplification. Most java libraries and console utilities can easily start using java-headless dependency by replacing their "Requires: java" to "Requires: java-headless". Few exceptions where packages can not use java-headless but must keep using full java package. * software using Java awt subsystem * software using Java sound subsystem Untouched bugs blocking this bug will be automatically migrated to java-headless after February 15th 2014. For more details see the Headless Java change proposal page[1]. [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/HeadlessJava
Package bug text
Summary: %{name}: Switch to java-headless (build)requires
%{name} currently Requires and/or BuildRequires java. OpenJDK package has been split
and most packages should now Require package "java-headless" instead. BuildRequires on
java-devel stay unchanged.
Few exceptions where packages can not use java-headless but must keep using
full java package.
* software using Java awt subsystem
* software using Java sound subsystem
Your options:
1. Leave this bug untouched and after February 15th 2014 an automated tool will migrate this package to
java-headless and run a rebuild in Fedora Rawhide.
2. Change bug to "Assigned" if you plan to review and migrate to java-headless manually. Automated
tool will not touch bugs that are not in NEW state.
See tracking bug ##### or Headless Java change proposal[1] for more details about this change.
Also feel free to ask on java-devel mailing list if you are not sure what to do[2]
