Re: OpenJDK 25 in ports tree

Hoi,

Just pushed an update to the java/openjdk25 port, that enables building
-jre and -headless variants from the same port:

https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/ports/commit/?id=fe94eea55572b109ad291b3607ba59caff917a7e

The old way of building -jre by setting the BUILD_JRE env var is still
supported, but I encourage to switch to using flavors instead. In time
this should also make the -jre and -headless packages available to
install via pkg (I think.)

Hope this is useful to some.

Take Care!
Harald
