Bug#786417: openjdk-8: FTBFS: *** This OS is not supported: Linux … 4.0.0-1-amd64 …

 

Source: openjdk-8
Version: 8u45-b14-3
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Trying to rebuild it in a wheezy chroot (probably also fails in sid).

make[6]: Entering directory `/tmp/openjdk-8-8u45-b14/build/hotspot'
>&2 echo "*** This OS is not supported:" `uname -a`; exit 1;
*** This OS is not supported: Linux tglase.lan.tarent.de 4.0.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.0.2-1 (2015-05-11) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Prefixing the dpkg-buildpackage call with “linux64 --uname-2.6”
makes it work. And yes, I agree, this is among *the* most idiotic
things in Linux recently – and even less published than the 3.0
jump, even less useful, even less tested, etc.
