These are available on this private repo [0] (did not build the i686). I also wrote this wiki section in order to give some insight [1]. Before pushing it to [testing], I would love some feedback. Anyone interested in testing these packages is welcome to give feedback. To do so, just add these to your pacman.conf: [galaux_jdk] Server = http://pkgbuild.com/~guillaume/repos/jdk/$arch Does the install runs OK? Is your "JRE" and "JDK" fully functionnal after install? Are you able to switch from install to another? Suggestions etc… [0] http://pkgbuild.com/~guillaume/repos/jdk/ [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Java#Multiple_official_Java_environments
