I believe you're supposed to do it this way, by replying on the aur-requests list.
Please do not delete, there isn't anything bad in these packages. They do their job - they are perfectly usable on Teamcity build agents for running unit tests and integration tests against multiple Java version. Yes, even those deprecated ones.
I must second this; I require Java 6 for a few applications at work that refuse to work with a newer version; there is no reason to remove them when they still work and can be useful. Regards, ~Celti
