Comment 1 John Jarvis 2008-07-14 13:39:33 UTC
IBM, what is the projected delivery date for this code?

Comment 2 IBM Bug Proxy 2008-07-18 17:10:33 UTC
------- Comment From sglass.com 2008-07-18 13:08 EDT-------
This version should be available by the end of next week or beginning of the
next.

Comment 3 Lillian Angel 2008-07-18 17:26:10 UTC
David says SR8 will be out next week. Should we wait for this?

Comment 4 Lillian Angel 2008-07-18 17:26:28 UTC
SR7 is available now.

------- Comment From sglass.com 2008-07-18 13:46 EDT-------
Lillian, if you can wait until next week, it would be better to go with SR8.

Comment 8 IBM Bug Proxy 2008-08-05 14:42:38 UTC
Moving to Accepted state as this is in RH cvs tree

Comment 18 IBM Bug Proxy 2009-03-13 13:22:36 UTC
An update from system-x distro team:

Java5 SR9 (32-bit) shipped with RHEL4.8-Alpha has been successfully tested using JGrinder test suite.
We will be testing 64-bit Java5 SR9 on a RHEL4.8-Beta kernel & update the results soon.

Thanks!

Comment 19 IBM Bug Proxy 2009-03-16 19:12:08 UTC
Update from LoP test team:

Java5 (build pxp32dev-20081129 (SR9-0 )) shipped with RHEL4.8-Beta has passed tests using jltf test suite and specjbb.

Thanks,

Comment 20 IBM Bug Proxy 2009-03-16 19:40:32 UTC
Just FYI:

- Tests from Lucio's comment were run in a JS12 machine.
- RHEL4.8-Beta only delivers 32-bit JVMs for ppc.

Comment 21 John Jarvis 2009-03-16 21:44:48 UTC
64-bit Java packages for Power are missing, flipping to FAILS_QA to get this fixed.

Comment 22 Nick Petrov 2009-03-17 13:15:35 UTC
ppc64 are now on RHN beta channel

Comment 23 John Jarvis 2009-03-17 13:47:37 UTC
These should also go onto the ISOs in addition to being on RHN.

Comment 24 John Jarvis 2009-03-17 16:53:00 UTC
The PPC64 version will be RHN only. The LACD cannot be multilib -- the installer
will not support it.
