Description Mikolaj Izdebski 2019-12-05 18:09:22 UTC 
During legal review it was found that byte-buddy SRPM contains prebuilt object code of unknown licensing:

byte-buddy-agent/src/main/resources/win32-x86/attach_hotspot_windows.dll
byte-buddy-agent/src/main/resources/win32-x86-64/attach_hotspot_windows.dll

These files are not used during the build and should be removed from SRPM.

Comment 2 Mikolaj Izdebski 2021-05-04 17:41:33 UTC 
According to current modules policy [1] modular packages can only exist as alternative versions.
Since Javapackages exists as non-modular package in Fedora, modular Javapackages in the same version is not allowed according to the policy.
