I learned how to do the wrapper script using jpackage utilites from that page, for example.

Well, that is a good example where I would appreciate advice from someone more experienced in Java packaging. Originally I didn't have any GCJ support. I didn't see any need. But then David pointed out that http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/GCJGuidelines says that GCJ AOT bits SHOULD be built and included in packages. "SHOULD" (assuming RFC 2119 interpretation) is pretty strong. So I followed the instructions on the page and added the support. But then in comment 20 (https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=985#c20) Chen Lei says that many Java packages have dropped GCJ support. And now you ask if I want it. I get the impression that the Wiki doesn't really reflect current practice. Is that a correct understanding? Is GCJ support to be considered optional nowdays, or maybe even deprecated? -- java-devel mailing list java-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/java-devel
