hi,

the binaray version of java has been in repo with the name jre and jdk for a long time. i noticed that a split package of java-sun is now in the community repo.

i don't know if java-sun is newly created or has been there also for a long time. anyway, the -sun suffix is not appropriate as the upstream java is branded oracle now.

i have been using openjdk since the beginning. so, basically, i pointed this out just for curiosity's sake.

best regards,

it was always java-sun, the website was just updated to show pkgbase names rather then the package names so that's why you noticed I guess now is a good time as any to update the name :) java-sun has now been renamed to java-oracle Cheers!
