Source: openjdk-9
Version: 9~b181-2
Severity: normal

Hi!

The following patches are no longer applied and are guaranteed not to
be used anymore. It should be safe to remove them:

 - 8073754-stack-overflow-9-build.diff
 - autoconf-updates.diff
 - hotspot-sparc-arch.diff
 - hotspot-sparc-fix.diff
 - ppc64le.diff
 - sparc-stubgenerator.diff

This should help us start get going cleaning up openjdk-9 for future
security updates. I'm currently working on getting more and more patches
upstreamed. I have signed Oracle's OCA and already contributed three
patches upstream.

Adrian
