jtreg packages in unstable

Show all headers | View raw

Dear Maintainers,

I apologise for raising this topic, but the state of jtreg packages in
Debian is a bit confusing for me.
Jtreg is being hosted at salsa git[1] and currently contains version
6.2+1 in the master branch.

In the archive we have:
- jtreg [2] 5.1+1
- jtreg6 [3]  6.2+1
- jtreg7 [4]  7.2+1

jtreg6 depends on testng (6.9.5), but openjdk tests require testng
7.3[4] in runtime. jtreg6 can be built with testng 7.3.

Using jtreg6 dependent on testng 7.3 for openjdk-8 tests will
introduce a number of new failures.

jtreg and jtreg6 are mostly frozen and unlikely to have any updates.
They are still needed to avoid OpenJDK tests failing due to the API
incompatibilities.

Would it be possible to revisit the decision to unify  jtreg packages
in Debian and create separate branches in jtreg repository[1] in line
with openjdk packaging[6] to host different versions of jtreg.
