• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description gunter kreck 2005-12-21 11:37:03 UTC]

when i start the fop shellscript in /usr/bin I get the following error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/avalon/framework/logger/Logger
        at org.apache.fop.apps.Fop.main(Fop.java:60)

installed is the following version:

 dev-java/fop 0.20.5-r1

Please try fop-0.20.5-r3 it seems to fix this issue. Add the following lines to /etc/portage/package.keywords
=dev-java/fop-0.20.5-r3
=dev-java/batik-1.5

In general it is always best to first test with the latest version and then file stabilizations requests if the newer version fixes a severe problem like this. I will be looking at marking the later version stable and you can help in it by testing the -r3 revision.

This most likely affects amd64 too.

the r-3 version starts. thanks for the help, i will report further problems, if there are any left.

Marked -r3 stable on amd64.

I don't know how I missed this but ppc should also keyword -r3 ~ppc. 
x86 stable now. Getting amd64 back because nichoj made an error in the ebuild by relaxing the dependency but still using the batik from the 1.5 slot.

[Comment 6 Joe Jezak (RETIRED) 2006-01-08 10:01:58 UTC]

-r3 is now marked ~ppc.

[Comment 7 Josh Nichols (RETIRED) 2006-01-08 11:12:56 UTC]

Re-marked stable on amd64. Sorry for the mix-up. Closing.

[Comment 8 Petteri Räty (RETIRED) 2006-01-23 01:16:50 UTC]

nichoj: Your stable marking did not seem to succeed:
http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?fop-0.20.5-r3
