Description Kasper Steensig 2013-05-20 18:09:15 UTC 
The current version of OpenJDK is 1.7.0_19 which isn't the newest stable version.

I'm requesting that OpenJDK 1.7.0_21 will be packaged instead so people will have the newest security fixes.
Comment 1 jiri vanek 2013-05-20 19:06:37 UTC 
Hi!

Current openjdk7 in Fedora have all necessary (and possible) security fixes.
The u21 will reach fedora with icedtea7 2.4, which is not sure even for f19.
Comment 2 Omair Majid 2013-05-21 16:39:24 UTC 
I think we should update the _19 version number to _21 to match upstream icedtea7 2.3.9 release.
Comment 3 Andrew John Hughes 2013-05-21 18:34:34 UTC 
2.4 is u40, not u21.  There is no u19 and Fedora should be fixed.
2.3.9 on other distros report "1.7.0_21" as they use the upstream release.
