I don't think it makes sense to restart the discussion here. I disagree
And I disagree with you.
This decision is such kind of harmful to Fedora, this decision should be
reverted. This decision communicates the attitude of FESCO not caring
about security, maintainablity and further related topics.
Personally, I see a lot of value in having Java packaged
for Fedora, and use it for my stuff.
So do I, but this doesn't invalidate the the thought of "bundling" and
"static linkage" being a prime security risk.
