patch for spec file

tzdata-java supplies tzdata data in a format compatible with OpenJDK 6 and OpenJDK 7. However, OpenJDK 8 uses tzdata in a different format and can not use the format tzdata-java supplies.

tzdata-java should be updated to also supply tzdata in a format compatible with OpenJDK 8.

I have adapted the code used by OpenJDK 8 to create javazic version suitable for use with tzdata-java package

The tarball is at: http://omajid.fedorapeople.org/javazic-1.8-37392f2f5d59.tar.xz

Thanks!

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to make the inclusion of this patch in Fedora faster.

further fix for the first patch

The first fix was incomplete. This is a further fix on top of that.

It fixes a mistake in the find command and makes sure that only two extra jdk-specific tz files are compiled.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle.
Changing version to '22'.

Can this bug be closed? This has been fixed in both F21 and F22.

Thanks for pushing this fix everywhere!
