When emerging oracle-jdk-bin-1.8 using --root, the default vm configuration step in pkg_postinst sets the VM symlink to a wrong value When using java in the booted target system, wrappers complains about wrong: " VM Home for VM 'oracle-jdk-bin-1.8' does not exist" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have no Java VM installed in your ROOT target 2. emerge oracle-jdk-bin:1.8 3. ls -l ${ROOT}/etc/java-config-2 Actual Results: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 49 22 sept. 20:22 current-system-vm -> /mnt/stage5/debug//usr/lib/jvm/oracle-jdk-bin-1.8 Expected Results: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 23 sept. 16:00 current-system-vm -> /usr/lib/jvm/oracle-jdk-bin-1.8 Portage 2.2.14 (python 2.7.9-final-0, hardened/linux/amd64/no-multilib, gcc-4.8.4, glibc-2.19-r1, 3.17.1-gentoo x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-3.17.1-gentoo-x86_64-Intel-R-_Xeon-R-_CPU_E5-2690_v2_@_3.00GHz-with-gentoo-2.2 KiB Mem: 132058656 total, 28377832 free KiB Swap: 134217724 total, 134095336 free Timestamp of tree: Fri, 13 Mar 2015 00:45:01 +0000 ld GNU ld (Gentoo 2.24 p1.4) 2.24 app-shells/bash: 4.2_p53 dev-java/java-config: 2.2.0-r1::local <- now fixed ebuild dev-lang/perl: 5.20.1-r4::local dev-lang/python: 2.7.9-r1::local, 3.3.5-r1 dev-util/cmake: 2.8.12.2-r1 dev-util/pkgconfig: 0.28-r1 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.2 sys-apps/openrc: 0.13.11 sys-apps/sandbox: 2.6-r1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.69 sys-devel/automake: 1.12.6, 1.13.4 sys-devel/binutils: 2.24-r3 sys-devel/gcc: 4.8.4::local sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.7.3::local sys-devel/libtool: 2.4.4 sys-devel/make: 4.1-r1 sys-kernel/linux-headers: 3.18 (virtual/os-headers) sys-libs/glibc: 2.19-r1 Repositories: gentoo local ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" ACCEPT_LICENSE="* -@EULA" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--jobs=9 --load-average=20.0" FCFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" FEATURES="assume-digests binpkg-logs config-protect-if-modified distlocks ebuild-locks fixlafiles merge-sync news parallel-fetch preserve-libs sfperms strict unknown-features-warn unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch userpriv usersandbox usersync xattr" FFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://local.mirror/gentoo" LANG="fr_FR.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed" MAKEOPTS="-j9 -l20.0" PKGDIR="/opt/local/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/opt/local/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --omit-dir-times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --human-readable --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/opt/overlays/local" USE="acl amd64 berkdb bzip2 cli cracklib crypt cxx dri gdbm hardened iconv ipv6 justify libav minimal mmx modules ncurses nls nptl openmp pam pax_kernel pcre readline session sse sse2 ssl tcpd unicode urandom xattr xtpax zlib" ABI_X86="64" ALSA_CA" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_BUNZIP2_COMMAND, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, SYNC, USE_PYTHON
Created attachment 412644 [details, diff] Patch for java-config Attached is a patch I've tested in a local ebuild, fixing the problem (actual result tested)
We ought to work on a new release of java-config and dust off some of this code cause it's *REALLY* old.
Isn't this also relevant to Gentoo:Prefix or Gentoo:RAP? ;-)
it's no longer a problem with java-config because the code was deleted with 2.3: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/java-config.git/commit/?id=b444f958864524357c7462ff7267af429d7e23aa but sadly the eselect module is also buggy. opened issue 793965 with details.
