Java does not currently publish macOS x64 or Linux musl classifiers - but we'll add those soon enough (so better to add these now while we're at it)
Work items in this Epic address this gap.
Confirmed — the assertion is true for the current checkout (d5c9d06, September 7, 2026).
Java publishes these native classifiers:
linux-x64andlinux-arm64— glibc onlywin32-x64andwin32-arm64darwin-arm64
There is no darwin-x64, linuxmusl-x64, or linuxmusl-arm64 build/profile in java/copilot-native/pom.xml or either Java publishing workflow. The release summary explicitly lists only those five classifiers in .github/workflows/java-publish-maven.yml:625-633.
Additional confirmation:
java/copilot-native/scripts/validate-native-host.mjs:6-20rejects musl Linux hosts.java/README.md:604explicitly identifies Intel macOS and Linux musl as unsupported.- Although
validate-native-artifact.mjsaccepts macOS x64 and musl-shaped classifier names for generic artifact validation, no Maven profile or publication job produces them.
