Hello,
Please review this late change for JDK 9. It adds a new configure
parameter --with-freetype-license, which can optionally be set to point
to a license file for freetype. If freetype bundling is enabled, this
license file will be included in the java.desktop.jmod file and
subsequently in the images/{jdk,jre}/legal/java.desktop directory.
Note that freetype comes with a dual license. For normal GPL OpenJDK
builds, no additional license is needed as freetype is also GPL. This
feature is only needed when someone is licensing OpenJDK with a
different license (which the Oracle reference implementation builds do).
This change is considered noreg-doc and will go into jdk9.
