Description Łukasz Mierzwa 2007-10-21 17:30:05 UTC

emerging gcc-4.2.2 with USE="gcj" needs zip or jar as DEPEND


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="gcj" emerge =gcc-4.2.2
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
checking for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ar... /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ar
checking for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ranlib... /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ranlib
checking for gawk... (cached) gawk
checking for jar... no
checking for fastjar... no
checking for zip... no
checking for unzip... unzip
configure: error: cannot find neither zip nor jar, cannot continue
make[1]: *** [configure-target-libjava] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/gcc-4.2.2/work/build'
make: *** [profiledbootstrap] Error 2


Expected Results:  
gcc emerged sucesfully

Comment 1 Sabeeh Baig 2007-10-22 00:00:58 UTC

This is not a bug.  GCJ is the Java compiler.  Java files are usually archives, jars.  Also, when you compile a Java program, it can link directly to classes inside a zip a file.  So, the dependencies are right.

Comment 2 Łukasz Mierzwa 2007-10-22 10:52:54 UTC

but I can't emerge gcc because of this, it's needed to build gcc with gcj support.

Comment 3 Spider 2007-11-02 16:39:20 UTC

This is most definitely a DEPEND bug in the gcc-4.2.2 ebuild.

Testcase:

emerge -Cp `qfile -qC /usr/bin/zip` `qfile -qC /usr/bin/jar`
USE="gcj" emerge gcc


Once you pass the testcase with your current DEPEND (not RDEPEND mind you.) in gcc-4.2.2,  You're welcome to state the obvious that gcj is only a java compiler and not needed to build it.

Comment 4 Spider 2007-11-02 16:40:03 UTC

ah, of course,  the correct testcase is :
emerge -C `qfile -qC /usr/bin/zip` `qfile -qC /usr/bin/jar`  not -Cp .

I'm seeing the same.

It seems like the gcc 4.2.2 ebuild should require, that zip is installed, when USE=gcj is used to build gcc.

Comment 7 Alexander Huemer 2008-01-28 07:39:01 UTC

i had the same problem with 4.2.2.
zip should be added as a dependency when gcj is enabled.

unzip/zip are pulled in with gcc-4.2.3 when USE=gcj
