  • I am trying to define an xbps-src template for logisim-evolution, a Java app that requires Java 16. I am using depends="virtual?java-runtime" and, as expected by reading etc/defaults.virtual, OpenJDK 8 is used. Creating a etc/virtual file is ignored in .gitignore, so I guess it is made to be used with local packages. Using depends="virtual?java-runtime-17.0.5+7_1" works, as OpenJDK 17 provides that exact version of java-runtime. If it were updated, this package would break, because if I input a lower version, it will fail. I've tried using syntax like > and >=, but then I get the following error:
