             Summary: use java.specification.version instead of java.version in Build-Jdk manifest entry
                 Key: MSHARED-796
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-796
             Project: Maven Shared Components
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: maven-archiver
    Affects Versions: maven-archiver-3.3.0
            Reporter: Hervé Boutemy
             Fix For: maven-archiver-3.3.1


as part or reproducible builds efforts, we're removing manifest entries that are hard to reproduce and do not add much value.
In MSHARED-661, we removed "Built-By: <username>" entry, but decided to keep "Build-Jdk" entry

the idea here is not to remove "Build-Jdk" entry but to replace its value from too much detailed java.version system property (which details the patch level) to java.specification.version: the specification has an impact on the generated bytecode, then is useful to keep, but at least we'll avoid patch level information
