Bug 118863 – rhino installs jsscript with bad java-config reference

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Ákos Maróy 2006-01-13 03:37:50 UTC]

after installing rhino, one gets a /usr/bin/jsscript like the following:

#!/bin/sh
exec $(java-config --java) -classpath $(java-config --classpath=rhino) org.mozilla.javascript.tools.shell.Main $@


the problem is, that java-config refers to the rhino package not as rhino, but as rhino-1.x:

$ java-config -l | grep rhino
[rhino-1.5] Rhino is an open-source implementation of JavaScript written entirely in Java. It is typically embedded into Java applications to provide scripting to end users (/usr/share/rhino-1.5/package.env)
[rhino-1.6] Rhino is an open-source implementation of JavaScript written entirely in Java. It is typically embedded into Java applications to provide scripting to end users (/usr/share/rhino-1.6/package.env)


thus the above jsscript will never find the rhino package, as:

$ java-config --classpath=rhino
Could not find package rhino


though the following works:

$ java-config --classpath=rhino-1.6
/usr/share/rhino-1.6/lib/js.jar


fixing this is simple, just add the version number into the jsscript script...
