Its bad to set it automatically unless there is also a flag to turn it off, e.g. we would need to add a LINUX_BOOTSTRAP or a WITHOUT_NATIVE_BOOTSTRAP. > Is jdk13 any more or less unstable when it is built nativly? Identical. > Is the long term goal to avoid using the linux versions of java when possible? Its _my_ long term goal, whether its a goal of people in general I can't say. > Should your modification be added to the default pkgtools.conf? I would have to say no. This would make life unnecessarily difficult for users installing a JDK for the first time (if they did it with portinstall). People may also choose to do this a different way (for example, I have this setting in make.conf, not pkgtools.conf). > Is it possible to build jdk13 with a native or non native jdk14? I haven't tried this. I can only say that in general you need the same version to do the bootstrapping. You certainly can't bootstrap jdk14 with jdk13. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
