Since it is NO_BUILD now this should propably be taken out since it is now conrolled upstream. The reason to set it to JAVA_VERSION 21 when I still built, was because it installs a library-jar to be used by other ports, in my case https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/pull/491 databases/dtlvnative. dtlvnative throws if javacpp was built with a newer jdk than itself. So I "pinned it" to the oldest sensible (default) version to always be older than its consumers. Do you suggest I just take it out or replace it with something else with the port being NO_BUILD but the manual test needing some jdk? Regards Markus Sorry, you are getting this twice because I forgot to reply to all. -- Markus Graf Tel.: +49 172 840 26 08 Email: markus.graf@markusgraf.net Web: markusgraf.net, headhuntertraining.nethome | help
