Description Dennis Schridde 2019-04-09 19:52:21 UTC

$ boot
Failed to execute process '/usr/bin/boot'. Reason:
exec: Exec format error
The file '/usr/bin/boot' is marked as an executable but could not be run by the operating system.

$ echo $SHELL
/usr/bin/fish

$ head /usr/bin/boot
source /usr/share/boot-bin/package.env
jarpath="/usr/share/boot-bin/lib/boot-bin.jar"
declare -a "options=($BOOT_JVM_OPTIONS)"
self="${BASH_SOURCE[0]}"
exec ${BOOT_JAVA_COMMAND:-java} "${options[@]}" -Dboot.app.path="$jarpath" -jar "$jarpath" "$@"

The shebang is clearly missing.  I assume this works for bash, but fails for other shells.

    dev-java/boot-bin: Add missing shebang re bug #682984
    
    Add a shebang to the boot bootup script so it works for users who have a
    native shell other than bash.
    
    -r1 bump necessary as if you already had it installed, it was possibly
    broken.
