[$] Rethinking Fedora's Java packaging
Linux distributors are famously averse to shipping packages with bundledlibraries; they would rather ship a single version of each library to beshared by all packages that need it. Many upstream projects, instead, arefond of bundling (or "vendoring") libraries; this leads to tension that hasbeen covered here numerous times in the past (examples:1,23,4,5, ...). The recent Fedora discussion onbundling libraries with its Java implementation would look like justanother in a long series, but it also shines a light on the uniquechallenges of shipping Java in a fast-moving community distribution.
