Any proposal that requires *more* work from Fedora package maintainers
is a complete non-starter, given the harsh reality that there already
isn't enough packager person-hours available to keep the Fedora Java
ship afloat.
Without a process simplification for the packages like this one, or
something better. The Java applications ecosystem being packaged on Fedora
will not be resurrected.
Yep; automate (to compensate for upstream culture) or die.
