[aur-requests] [PRQ#34977] Deletion Request for jdk9
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for jdk9 [2]: EOL since March 2018, no extended support. Download 404 (funtoo.org), behind loginwall (Oracle). I am submitting this deletion request for consideration. I don't think this package is needed anymore. Arch still carries jre8-openjdk, and Oracle offers paid access to Oracle JDK 8 but not for 9. Rationale for deletion: 1- If this package cannot be salvaged, it is essentially just spam on AUR. There are already too many legacy JRE and JDK packages here. 2- EOL since 2018, therefore insecure. No one should use it, there are alternatives for secure legacy versions. Please consider and do as you see fit. :) [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/account/MarsSeed/ [2] https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/jdk9/
