regressions in libjava testsuite on arm-linux

[Matthias Klose]

PR libgcj/40860 results in a gcj on armel with a broken stack unwinder, breaking the openjdk stage2 build on armel, and probably other gcj based builds.

fixed in maverick and unstable, no problems seen with the patch until now.

Accepted binutils into lucid-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

How can this be tested/verified?

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

> How can this be tested/verified?

by comparing the test results?
by a two stage openjdk-6 build?

but we'll need a fix for #608143 too.

[Jonathan Riddell (jr)]

New upload seems to be in lucid-proposed unapproved queue. Needs debdiff on this bug. Needs test case. Needs approval from ubuntu-sru.

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

see the results of the testsuite for the "testcase"

[John Dong (jdong)]

ACK from SRU team.

Any testers of the lucid-proposed package?

Matthias, is this fixed in natty? If so, please close the task.

for the testsuite results.

it is "fixed" in natty in the same way, building gcj for arm mode, not thumb.
