severity 675495 important thanks security support for openjdk in debian has always been a bit flaky. packages in edgy were not updated anymore, and updates to squeeze come late. So the "support" from Oracle was/is not used by the security team even when the security updates from Oracle are available. Certainly the situation doesn't get better, if Oracle's support is limited to openjdk7 only, however there should be the possibility to backport the patches to openjdk6, which will get harder, the more the hotspot version diverges in newer openjdk7 builds.
Now downgrading the severity to let the current, still supported openjdk update into testing. openjdk7 would be something nice to have, because it seems to build on kfreebsd as well (at least when building on a wheezy installation), but there are still some things not yet ported to 7. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
