Michał, as already discussed with Pacho [1], emul-linux-x86-jna can just |
| 14 |
go away entirely. Nothing requires it and it doesn't make any sense |
| 15 |
without emul-linux-x86-java though I note that isn't in the list either; |
| 16 |
I thought it would be. Java herd is struggling with the regular VM |
| 17 |
packages enough as it is, we could really do without supporting this |
| 18 |
one as well. I very much doubt that end users need it any more. Any |
| 19 |
objections to removing it? |
