[kenzolo (vincenzo-giovinazzo91)]

sorry guys, I need openjdk v7 to compile some stuff but now it has been removed
How can I install it?
thanks in advance

[Joel Carlson (jtackllc)]

I also develop reports that require openjdk-7-jre and need it back in the repositories.

For kenzolo, I was able to install java 1.7.0_80 in Ubuntu 16.04 as a work around until openjdk-7-jre is put back.

Hello,

I need openjdk 7 to run eclipse mars 2

https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/Mars/2

Could you help me please ?

Best regards

Battant

[Battant (mparchet)]

Why have you remove openjdk-7 from ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Thanks for your answer ?

Best regards

Battant

[Battant (mparchet)]

Hello,

for information : you can see this eclipse bug ?

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=492160

Best regards

we don't want to spend the resources to support openjdk-7 anymore. If you still need it, there is a copy in the openjdk-r/ppa PPA, however without any commitment to update that version.
