Re: [cbi-dev] Upcoming changes regarding jar signing in JDK17

Hi Mikael,

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=572034 is related and it could be that Equinox wouldn't be able to handle that change at the moment, resulting in p2 failing to install the artifacts. Please ask on https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=572034 about whether the proposed change would be an occurrence of the bug and break current 4.19; and if 4.20 would fix it.

If it is an occurrence of the bug, then it's a bit tricky to change it now as people won't be able to upgrade. The strategy would be to keep the supported algorithm until 4.20 is released and then switch to newer one.

Cheers,
