Improve understandability of package versions for JDK Early Access

[Michele Mancioppi]

The current package version of the OpenJDK 17, currently in Early Access, looks as follows:

  openjdk-17-jdk/hirsute-updates,hirsute-security,now 17~19-1ubuntu1 amd64

The `~` in 17~19 should indicate that it is an Early Access, but it is not understandable for Java developers not acquainted with Debian package version rules.

The proposal is to add the `ea` suffix to Early Build package version, so that the 19th EA build of OpenJDK 17, would be:

  openjdk-17-jdk/hirsute-updates,hirsute-security,now 17~19ea-1ubuntu1 amd64

The above, adds the `ea` marker that is understandable to Java people without compromising the structure of the package version.

Hello Michele, or anyone else affected,

Accepted openjdk-17 into hirsute-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-17/17+35-1~21.04 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-hirsute to verification-done-hirsute. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-hirsute. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.
