That can could be a separate tag, but rel-eng is quite reluctant to provide them. Copr could be a better place to do the rebuild. One big advantage is that it doesn't use any ARM builders, but on the other hand it has quite limited capacity (AFAIK 10 builders only). Besides that, there is already one approved change [1] which requires rebuilding most of Java packages. We didn't do a mass rebuild for it yet because we wanted to sync with Java 8 rebuild. -- Mikolaj Izdebski [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/HeadlessJava -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
