[HEADS UP] Eclipse dropping 32-bit arches
by Mat Booth
The message about Ceph [1] reminded me that we should probably make the
same notification for Eclipse Platform.
The Eclipse Platform upstream is in the process of dropping all support for
32bit arches.
The current state is that upstream are no longer building for 32bit arches
upstream for 4.10 (release 2018-12) onwards. I expect them to start
actively removing 32bit specific code in future releases.
You can read more about the decision on the upstream bug [2]
In Fedora, Eclipse 4.10 which I am building for Rawhide and F29 right now,
still builds for 32bit arches, but this will not last long. I expect in a
future release (4.11 or later) Eclipse will no longer build on x86/arm and
at that time I will no longer be able to support these architectures in
Fedora -- I expect to exclude those arches from Fedora builds.
If you depend on the ECJ batch compiler, this will continue to be available
on all arches as a noarch package. (It is packaged as a discrete SRPM and
has no build or runtime dependency on the Eclipse Platform itself.)
Regards,
Mat

How to make Xmvn search in several prefixes
by Hartmut Goebel
Hi,
I'm packaging some Java packages for guix
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/, a functional package manager (much
like nix).
I would appreciate some assistance for understanding how to leverage
Xmvn in this case.
Guix installs each package into a prefix of it's own, e.g.:
/gnu/store/...-plexus-io/share/java/plexus/io.jar
/gnu/store/...-dom4j-1.6.1/share/java/dom4j/dom4j.jar
Thus Xmvn shall pick up artifacts and meta-data from all prefixes
belonging to the current profile/environment. Each prefix could contain
a .../xmvn/configuration.xml and $XDG_DATA_DIRS could be used to get a
list of these.
I tried this and it worked different then expected.
I tried to use the "prefixes" (according the the Xmvn configuration
reference [1]) as shown below. But the Xmvn does not even try to access
these prefixes. Can somebody explain why, please?
<configuration> <resolverSettings> <prefixes>
<prefix>/gnu/store/...-plexus-io</prefix> </prefixes>
</resolverSettings> </configuration>
I learned that I need to define <metadataRepositories>, which worked.
But I'm wondering what are the <prefixes> then used for and how to test
whether my set-up is correct.
Thanks in advance for any answer.
Please note: I'm using Xmvn 2.5.0 since this is what my distribution
currently ships .
