Motivation for this change

Jikes was an alternative Java compiler. The last release was in 2005 and it hasn't been touched in years. The last Java version it (partially) supports is Java 5. There are no packages depending on it.
Homepage: https://sourceforge.net/projects/jikes/

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

@cke You need to remove the callPackage in all-packages.nix and add an alias to aliases.nix.

And by an alias I mean something like https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/top-level/aliases.nix#L309. And we'll remove it in the next nixos release.

$ nix-env -f /home/jon/.cache/nix-review/pr-70666/nixpkgs -qaP --xml --out-path --show-trace --meta
Nothing changed

No packages were successfully build, skip nix-shell
$ git worktree prune

EDIT: please squash commits into one :)

commits should be written in the "imperative mood" https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/tree/Documentation/SubmittingPatches?id=HEAD#n133 but it's close enough so I'll merge :)

backported in 30ceb51.
also did eb8f818 because in certain instances, when the message doesn't include the packagename, people have no idea why they're seeing this message.
