Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hi
I intend to package openjdk-compiler (normally called javac) that was released today by Sun as GPL software. Name: openjdk-compiler URL: https://openjdk.dev.java.net/compiler/ License: GPL with CLASSPATH exception, see text below Description: Sun Java compiler I have not yet determined what software that is needed in order to compile this package. It may need a java virtual machine or java classes. The java virtual machine is released under GPL but the classes has not been released yet. Help, name suggestions etc is appriciated. If this seems to be a too big job, then I'll consider someone else to co-maintain, maintain or group maintain by the java team. --- "CLASSPATH" EXCEPTION TO THE GPL Certain source files distributed by Sun Microsystems, Inc. are subject to the following clarification and special exception to the GPL, but only where Sun has expressly included in the particular source file's header the words "Sun designates this particular file as subject to the "Classpath" exception as provided by Sun in the LICENSE file that accompanied this code."
