I've looked at the way this is launched and given that this isn't built from source, it wouldn't be all that hard to do. I count about 8 jars that could be unbundled. To find these at runtime, the ebuild would need to call java-pkg_register-dependency and create a launcher with java-pkg_dolauncher to replace the upstream launcher. However, I'm not going to spend any time on this. Java team is exploring a totally new direction where we will lean more heavily on Maven/Gradle to unbundle things but mostly only native code will be compiled and the majority of dependencies won't even be explicitly packaged. This is the only option I can come up with besides total collapse. I'm currently doing research to come up with a proof of concept. |
