  * Effort sponsored by ⮡ tarent

openjdk-8 (8u292-b10-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Source-only upload after the previous bootstrap binary one
  * Change -Xmx1024m to -Xmx1000m in icedtea-sound compilation
    to work with mipsel’s memory layout (and sh4)
  * Don’t set old-style ALT_ environment variables, they are ignored
  * Create the origtgz in a hopefully reproducible way
  * Merge openjdk-8 (8u292-b10-0+deb9u1)

  * Obtain origtgz from https or, when not possible (icedtea-sound),
    check SHA256 against one I manually downloaded and checked, using
    the (expired…) key from pyconfigure’s signing keyring, which,
    unlike the keyserver network, contains the key used
  * Abort fetching origtgz if it fails, don’t soldier on to fail later
  * Document reasons some tests fail (more building on older releases)

openjdk-8 (8u282-b08-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Reupload to sid, under new maintainership (Debian Java team);
    cf. https://lists.debian.org/debian-java/2021/03/msg00021.html
    (and surrounding thread); sponsored by ⮡ tarent
  * Readd improvements from 8u275-b01-1, lost changelog entries
  * Add NEWS to openjdk-8-jre-headless (because all other depend on
    that) regarding OpenJDK 8 not being supported
  * Use GCC 10 to build on bullseye, sid, groovy and hirsute (that
    means GCC 9 on focal only) (Closes: #978519)
  * Silence postinst warning about removed -XX:PermSize option
  * Switch to mktemp(1)
  * Drop unused patches (keep a couple which just need updating)
  * Update README.source a little
  * G/C long-dead code from postinst, too
  * If the testsuite is disabled during generation of debian/control
    omit test-only dependencies
  * Upload with binaries built using the previous openjdk-8 binaries
    because openjdk-8-jdk is required for bootstrapping; 7 works but
    11 cannot be used :/ a source-only upload will follow
  * Skip testsuite for first bootstrap, saving lots of time/CPU
  * Address some issues lintian reported; update a number of overrides
