Description Robert Scheck 2023-04-23 00:42:45 UTC
Spec URL: https://labs.linuxnetz.de/bugzilla/icedtea-web.spec
SRPM URL: https://labs.linuxnetz.de/bugzilla/icedtea-web-1.8.8-1.src.rpm
Description: The IcedTea-Web project provides a free software implementation of Java Web Start, originally based on the NetX, project. IcedTea's NetX currently supports verification of signed jars, trusted certificate storing, system certificate store checking, and provides the services specified by the jnlp API. In addition it also provides a full desktop integration, an offline run, many extended security features, an own policy editor and much more.

Note: As of writing this package is only intended for EPEL 9.

Comment 1 Robert Scheck 2023-04-23 01:23:36 UTC
Note for myself: https://salsa.debian.org/java-team/icedtea-web/-/commit/184c05ab121ad4f71a1ad7bd1d1de4fbc62cd2d0 could lead to Java 17 support (not really relevant for EL9 yet, but helps maybe for IcedTea-Web at Fedora).

Comment 3 Robert Scheck 2023-04-23 14:51:03 UTC
Java 17 is already part since RHEL 9.0, but the default version is still Java 10 (and I can not see any change in your mentioned link).

Comment 4 Robert Scheck 2023-04-23 14:51:41 UTC
s/Java 10/Java 11/g - sorry, typo.

Comment 5 vendors 2023-05-12 15:17:10 UTC
> Note: As of writing this package is only intended for EPEL 9.

It would be incredibly useful to have this available in Fedora as well.  Can you work to make it available in Fedora?

Comment 6 Neil Hanlon 2023-05-26 04:19:42 UTC
Thank you for your patience with my reviewing this package. All looks good to me!

The below review is against fedora-rawhide, but I also validated this against EPEL9, as per the original ticket.

With respect to Knownhost's comments, I would be willing to help comaintain this package in epel and fedora with you, rsc, as it is useful to me as well on Fedora and ELs.
