1 Hey folks,
2
3 I finally broke down and did some work on java-1.5-fixer, so that it
4 should handle most situations. This version currently available here
5 [1]. Normally, java-1.5-fixer gets installed by
6 dev-java/java-config-wrapper, but I haven't updated it yet...
7
8 Improvements:
9
10 * Checks dependencies of ant are explicitly checked
11 * If packages with jars that have 1.5 bytecode are found, they are all
12 unmerged, then remerged
13 * jars to check are now deteremined from package.env files (ie
14 /usr/share/ant-core/package.env ), instead of just checking
15 /usr/share/*/lib/*.jar. This handles cases when jars are installed
16 somewhere else.
17 * Doesn't check jars that are known to have 1.5 bytecode. This currently
18 consists of a few jars from things available from java-experimental and
19 chewi-overlay.
20 * Overall implementation should be a bit cleaner than it was.
21
22 This might not seem like much, but it should drastically improve the
23 effectiveness of the script.
24
25 So... give it a try, and let me know if there are problems.
