Description Mark Tiefenbruck 2007-11-09 00:34:50 UTC

After installing gcc-4.2.2, revdep-rebuild reports the following broken libraries:

[ 62% ]  *   broken /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.2.2/libgij.la (requires /usr/lib/libgcj.la)
 *   broken /usr/lib/gcj-4.2.2/libjvm.la (requires /usr/lib/libgcj.la)

It then recommends recompiling gcc, which doesn't help because libgcj.la is provided by gcc. libgcj.la is actually located in /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.2.2/libgcj.la . I created a symlink in /usr/lib, and revdep-rebuild stopped complaining.

Reproducible: Always
