Bug 521470 – Java on arm don't compil

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description BRULE Herman 2014-08-29 02:23:14 UTC]

Hello,
I can't have java on ARM:
oracle-jre-bin:
mv: cannot stat '/var/tmp/portage/dev-java/oracle-jre-bin-1.8.0.11/work/jre*': No such file or directory
icedtea-bin: 
The source directory '/var/tmp/portage/dev-java/icedtea-bin-7.2.4.7/work/icedtea-bin-7.2.4.7' doesn't exist
I'm on armv7a-hardfloat.


Reproducible: Always

Yeah, there's a reason why packages have KEYWORDS...

[Comment 3 BRULE Herman 2015-05-26 23:41:28 UTC]

Then same for glibc and all other packages? When not compile don't try fix it, just mask it?
Fix the compilation as (some time have bug on x86) should be great. Here it's not compilation but more configuration problem.

Cheers,

These are binary packages, not source packages, so there is no compilation. Either a binary is available or it isn't. There are no binaries for ARM for either package, which is why they are not keyworded.

It would be much more useful if you tried the icedtea source package on ARM. If it succeeds, it can then be keyworded ~arm.

That tells us nothing, give us the full build log if you really want us to help you.

As Andrew says, the latest icedtea should now work and icedtea-bin is available for ~arm too but these were only added last week.
