--- Comment #5 from Christian Lohmaier <cloph at documentfoundation.org> ---
How can you blame a java-using component for not supporting an architecture,
when there is no Java runtime from Oracle (or anyone else) for those machines?

Ports from openJDK, mostly driven by Microsoft were still in early stages at
the point of the 7.2 release phase...

In any case not having feature parity is one of the reasons why the apple
silicon port is not flagged as officially supported, so it is not really a bug,
but a known limitation.

There is now a GA release available
https://github.com/microsoft/openjdk-aarch64 - but it is openJDK 16 based, and
not our baseline of JDK 11 (though stated to be coming soon).

I guess with that it is worth giving it a shot again, but it's certainly not
seen as a high priority/necessity for providing the apple silicon build for the
regular end user...

As such confirming, but setting it to enhancement. The builds just are done
without Java support for the moment.
