--- Comment #12 from jiri vanek <jvanek(a)redhat.com> ---
For the coexistence, you are right: openjfx is only for jdk8. openjfx
(JavaFX) is included into JDK8 but compiled separately into two projects:
openjdk and openjfx. That's why there is a subpackage with only symlinks.
Since Java 9 (or 10) openjfx is a separated library. No need to create
symlinks.
Good. thanx!
openjdk-8 and openjdk-11 are long term support. That's why I would like to
maintain openjfx libraries for those two JDKs. When the next LTS openjdk
will released (openjdk-14) I think a new package could be created. For the
nope, openjdk 17 is next LTS
intermediate openjdk, I could create a openjfx-latest package?
openjfx N
runs on openjdk N-1 (dixit Johan Vos openjfx co-lead at JFX Days in Zurich
last december)
Is the depndence really so strict? Hard to belive...
If not, I would vote for:
renaming current openjfx to openjfx8
made this package "openjfx" requiring java >= 11
Where the target jdk will be te highest LTS (11 for now) and latest STS(14 in
few weeks).
To have it aligned as you are suggesting ojdk 8,11 and latest x openjfx 8,11,
lates is kind offer, but may be very very confusing.
