Task #7335
Story #7259: A DEV2 development environment is needed for upgrade testing
Confirm that unlimited strength Java encryption policies are installed via Ubuntu
100%
Description
Oracle JDK 7 does not ship with JCE policies with "unlimited strength" encryption because of export controls. Confirm that the policy jars:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/security/local_policy.jar
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/lib/security/US_export_policy.jar
are distributed via an Ubuntu package and don't need to be installed manually. They are needed for Bouncy Castle APIs to work using dynamic calls to Security.addProvider().
