Bug 503624 – app-office/libreoffice on SYMLINK_LIB=no profile - configure: error: "/usr/lib64/"jvm not found, point with_jvm_path to \/path/to/\jvm

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Georgi Georgiev 2014-03-06 13:35:23 UTC]

Installing libreoffice on a system with a SYMLINK_LIB=no profile fails with:

checking for LIBLANGTAG... yes
checking which libpng to use... external
checking for LIBPNG... yes
checking whether to use specific JVM search path at runtime... yes
configure: error: "/usr/lib64/"jvm not found, point with_jvm_path to \/path/to/\jvm

And of course, there is no /usr/lib64/jvm. There is only /usr/lib/jvm:

$ ls -gGd /usr/lib*/jvm/
drwxr-xr-x 1 36 Feb 28 22:25 /usr/lib/jvm/

$ ls -gG /usr/lib*/jvm/
total 8
lrwxrwxrwx 1 19 Feb 28 21:47 icedtea-6 -> /usr/lib64/icedtea6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 19 Feb 28 22:25 icedtea-7 -> /usr/lib64/icedtea7

And here is the fix. Trivial, but I waited for libreoffice to compile before sharing it:

This looks good. /usr/lib*/jvm is also on a multilib profile entered in the VDB as /usr/lib/jvm.

Tom fixed this long ago without closing the bug.
