Description László Szalma 2015-12-14 22:16:15 UTC 
Broken symlink installed by default

emerge -av1 =dev-util/netbeans-java-8.1-r1

builds and installs a broken symlink:

/usr/share/netbeans-java-8.1/modules/ext/hibernate4/jtidy-r8-20060801.jar -> /usr/share/jtidy/lib/Tidy.jar

This broken symlink didn't cause any problem until today's module updates (I don't know which ones).

After clicking on update modules and netbeans resart, it couldn't restart, until I changed the symlink to the existing file:

jtidy-r8-20060801.jar -> /usr/share/jtidy/lib/jtidy.jar

I think this will happen to other users and maybe a patch (in -r2?) fixing the symlink to the correct one fixes the problem.

The (changed named) .jar file is in this package:

dev-java/jtidy-1.0
