the real problem here is that java-1.8.0-openjdk do NOT provides java!
so all other packages which requires java try to install older version,
but since it's install java-1.8.0-openjdk it can't install
java-1.7.0-openjdk.
and this itself cause a lot's of other problems:
- first of all older jdk will be installed (sun, ibm, oracle) and if it
can't find any other version then the build failed.
- the system default java never will be java-1.8.0-openjdk so all tools
will be use a different java.
- even if i set in the spec file:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:${PATH}
ant clean
Error: Could not find or load main class
org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher
the reason probably the same as in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=983394
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=982683
but jpackage-utils not updated on epel-6 and epel-7 (javapackages-tools)
so currently it's not possible.
anyway i fill a bug about it:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1208832
