March 2014 - java-devel - Fedora Mailing-Lists

by David Blevins

Hello Fedora/Java people, First post to the list, so hello! We've crafted up some RPMs for Apache TomEE and are looking to contribute them to Fedora if at all possible. * http://dl.bintray.com/hgomez/devops-incubator-rpm/tomee-jaxrs-1.5.2-1.noa... * http://dl.bintray.com/hgomez/devops-incubator-rpm/tomee-webprofile-1.5.2-... * http://dl.bintray.com/hgomez/devops-incubator-rpm/tomee-plus-1.5.2-1.noar... I haven't much of an idea on what the process for this might be. Dan Allen (RedHat) pointed us this way. Hoping someone here might have insight, even if that is some other list. -David

Javadoc packages

by Mikolaj Izdebski

We'll have to move to Java 8 in Fedora sooner or later. I did some testing of Maven and Ant stacks regards that and most of things seem to be working well, except for javadoc. Java 8 has a very strict parser for javadocs, and any error or nuisance causes build failure -- almost all packages fail to build with Java 8 due to various errors in javadocs. In some cases we can probably fix javadoc problems and forward patches upstream, but we have many legacy packages for which we can't push any patches upstream. I don't see how in reality we can fix all packages we have. The only good solution I can think of is disabling javadocs. My proposal is making javadoc subpackages optional, which means that for some Java packages they could be disabled depending on maintainer decision. Legacy packages with dead upstreams would be able to disable javadocs (no one should try to develop anything depending on such packages, so that's perfectly OK IMO). For packages which have active upstreams we can fix javadocs and forward patches, or disable javadoc packages, report the problem upstream and wait for them to fix it. The main reasons for making javadoc optional are: 1. Java 8 problems, as explained above. 2. Storage. I took a typical set of 265 Java source packages. When all binary RPMs were installed they took about 1.5 GB of storage. Javadocs themselves take 1.3 GB, everything else is just around 250 MB. 3. Build time. Javadoc generation usually takes more time than compilation. Javadoc tool needs a lot of memory, an can be very slow, especially on ARM or POWER where there is no JIT. There are cases where javadoc generation accounts for more than 90 % of build time. I am looking to hear your opinion on this matter (positive or negative) and if there is some positive feedback then I would like to submit this proposal as a system-wide change for Fedora 21. -- Mikolaj Izdebski

Splitting SLF4J

by Michael Šimáček

Hello, I've split the slf4j package into subpackages. The api, simple and nop submodules were left in the main package, in order not to break many packages that depend on slf4j. Submodules that were moved into subpackages: jdk14 log4j12 jcl ext jcl-over-slf4j log4j-over-slf4j jul-to-slf4j If some of your packages require one of those, please change your BuildRequires accordingly. Most of the packages shouldn't be affected. If your package needs just api, nop or simple submodules or you use mvn() style BuildRequires, no changes should be necessary. Regards, Michael Simacek

Re: [fedora-java] AArch64: We have a release

by Jiri Vanek

Hi All! I wont to add, that RPMS for fedora are built and downloadable on http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/ They have a bit strange name, but basically they are built on same tags as below source tarballs. Those are also pushed in fedora (rawhide) git (with sources in cache) so you can rebuild. *java-1.7.0-openjdk* http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.60... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.60... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.7.0-openjdk-accessib... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.7.0-openjdk-debuginf... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.7.0-openjdk-demo-1.7... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel-1.... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.7.0-openjdk-headless... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.7.0-openjdk-src-1.7.... *java-1.8.0-openjdk* http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.0-... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.0-... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.8.0-openjdk-accessib... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.8.0-openjdk-debuginf... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.8.0-openjdk-demo-1.8... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel-1.... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless... http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/fedora/java-1.8.0-openjdk-src-1.8....

Intent to retire maven-ant-tasks

by Orion Poplawski

I think it is well past time to have retired maven-ant-tasks. I just doesn't support maven 3 and upstream appears to be dead - no scm commits for 10 months. I'm planning on retiring by Friday unless someone else wants to flog this dead horse. # repoquery --whatrequires maven-ant-tasks leiningen-0:1.7.1-7.fc20.noarch but I don't know about BuildRequires. - Orion -- Orion Poplawski Technical Manager 303-415-9701 x222 NWRA/CoRA Division FAX: 303-415-9702 3380 Mitchell Lane orion(a)cora.nwra.com Boulder, CO 80301 http://www.cora.nwra.com

Replacement for JCEECDHKeyAgreement

by David Juran

Hello! I would need help with some pointers for how to find a replacement for (the ancient?) org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.JCEECDHKeyAgreement. I'm maintaining the azureus package for fedora and (quite some time ago), it's come to my attention (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=820117) that azureus bundles an ancient version of BouncyCastle and relies on the JCEECDHKeyAgreement class. This class no longer exists in current BouncyCastle and all information I can find about it is a javadoc of a rather old Bouncycastle version (http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~jonah/bc/org/bouncycastle/jce/provider/JCEECD...) So now my question is, does anyone have any good leads on how to convert this too use the current BouncyCastle API? The problematic (upstreams) sources can be found in http://svn.vuze.com/public/client/branches/BRANCH_4812/azureus2/src/com/a... -- David Juran Sr. Consultant Red Hat +46-725-345801

Lucene major update to 4.6.1

by Michael Šimáček

Hello, I'm updating lucene from version 3.6.2 to 4.6.1. This update will break some packages due to API changes. Affected packages: eclipse eclipse-m2e-core eclipse-mylyn h2 hibernate-search infinispan maven-indexer solr3 thermostat Packages that may be affected, but FTBFS regardless of lucene version: opengrok The rest of dependent packages built fine. Please try to update to the new API, it would be better if we didn't have to create a compat package. Regards, Michael Simacek
