Description jiri vanek 2022-02-06 15:57:20 UTC

tzdata fails to build with java-17-openjdk as sytem JDK. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Java17 .
See especially part about known failures: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Java17#common_issues_packagers_can_face_and_gathered_solutions

We run the rebuild in side tag f36-java17, but as fail ratio was small, we expect this side tag to be merged into rawhide 7 or 8 of February 2022.
To reproduce before this date simply: fedpkg clone tzdata; cd tzdata;  fedpkg build --target f36-java17; #The target is crucial.
After this date the usual fedpkg build in f36 and up should do.

We run two reruns your package failed both.

We had also run the mass rebuilds in copr since November. We keep all encountered failures. See them here: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jvanek/java17//package/tzdata
You may find interesting additional informations here. Also we were spamming maintainers regualrly, check you spam folder.
              

We had tried aprox 500 packages, and aprox 65 had failed, so the java-17-openjdk will be system JDK in f36, and you should fix your package if you want to keep it alive. Usually the fix is simple, and best is to update the package to latest upstream version.
There will be usual mass rebuild once f36 branches. You may got another FTBFS bug.
Let us know here if you have any questions, here in bug, or at java-devel.org .

We'd appreciate help from the people who know this package best, but if you don't want to work on this now, let us know so we can try to work around it on our side if needed.

Initial fix should be trivial:

+ javac -source 1.6 -target 1.6 -classpath . ./rht/too...
warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 6
error: Source option 6 is no longer supported. Use 7 or later.
error: Target option 6 is no longer supported. Use 7 or later.
RPM build errors:

Comment 2 jiri vanek 2022-02-08 15:29:01 UTC

to keep the legacy tzdata, now build requires both jdk8 and system jdk.
I recommend to put legacy tz data to separate subpkg or to drop them at all.

Also I would recomend to  rename legacy tzdat.to versioned ones (eg avazi-1.7) and to keep future, rolling tzdata unversioned, as javazionly
