emily | it would be nice enough just to get rid of the stuff in the tree that uses JDK 8 so that we can drop the source package, while still keeping the Temurin binary build until it dies (since it's low-maintenance and doesn't add cruft) | 18:31:14 |
emily | I first played Minecraft on the Halloween Update and I felt like I was late to the party because there was never a time when I played it without the Nether. | 18:32:18 |
emily | time flies. | 18:32:22 |
emily | actually no I played classic for like 5 minutes once before that. | 18:32:32 |
emily | the real old heads are the ones who played with the neon green leaves | 18:33:22 |
Tomodachi94 (they/them) | Looks like the only in-tree consumer of OracleJDK is javacard-devkit | 20:51:29 |
emily | which is some other proprietary Oracle stuff that hasn't been updated since it was added in 2019 | 21:02:04 |
emily | "Oracle has already released 3.0.5, but versions after 2.2.2 appear to be Windows-only." and was, um, a major version behind at that point? | 21:02:20 |
emily | I think we can kill it, but I'd assume it would work with OpenJDK too since I'm pretty sure our Oracle JDK is just an OpenJDK build without anything too fancy? | 21:02:49 |
Tomodachi94 (they/them) | I'll go ahead and PR a fix that makes it use the jre attribute, then another that drops the OracleJDKs | 23:53:54 |
Tomodachi94 (they/them) | I'll also try to find out whether java-devkit is even maintained, and drop it after the feature freeze | 23:54:45 |

emily | fwiw the author has not contributed to NixOS all year | 23:54:54 |
emily | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org "Oracle has already released 3.0.5, but versions after 2.2.2 appear to be Windows-only." and was, um, a major version behind at that point? it's sort of definitionally unmaintained though given ^ | 23:55:06 |
Tomodachi94 (they/them) | Oh missed that, my bad | 23:55:23 |
emily | I just checked: looks like it's from 2006? | 23:56:04 |
