User-visible changes are: 1) For people on 10.7 or later who have Oracle's Java-1.7.x installed, there will be system-java17* packages, plus the system-java and system-java-dev package will exist for people who don't have a legacy Apple Java installed, e.g. people who installed Mountain Lion after Apple dropped it. 2) On 10.5/i386, system-java16* goes away because Java-1.6.x was distributed as x86_64 only for some reason there. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ fink-core mailing list [email protected] List archive: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.core Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-core
