+OpenJDK 6 is an open source implementation of version 6 of the
+Java Development Kit, Standard Edition. It includes tools for developing,
+testing, and running programs written in Java.
+
+apache-ant is a required dependency and you have to install it before
+you build openjdk6. However, you do not need to install Oracle's jdk,
+since it's only a runtime dependency of apache-ant.
+
+Before installing this package please consider any other jdk's/jre's
+that you have already installed as they may cause conflicts with the
+PATH, JAVA_HOME and MANPATH variables.
+
+After installing the package you will need to logout/reboot your machine
+as it will add new files to the /etc/profile.d folder.
+
+This script may take a couple of hours to complete and will require
+about 11 GB of disk space for its temporary directory. It defaults to
+"/tmp/SBo" and you may redefine it like this:
+
+TMP=/your/temporary/dir ./openjdk6.SlackBuild
+
+The 'cacerts' binary is a keystore containing CA certificates which
+are used by Java applications. It is taken from the CentOS package
+'ca-certificates-2015.2.4-65.0.1.el6_6.noarch.rpm'.
