Description j.habenicht 2016-06-01 10:14:12 UTC
dev-java/icedtea-bin-3.0.1 seems to miss a dependency to x11-libs/libXcomposite.

I upgraded from dev-java/icedtea-bin-7.2.6.6-r1 to -3.0.1, and removed the superfluous packages with "emerge -c". This removed dev-java/icedtea-bin-7.2.6.6-r1 and x11-libs/libXcomposite-0.4.4-r1.

Then a message for a still used library appeared 
 *  - /usr/lib64/libXcomposite.so.1
 *  - /usr/lib64/libXcomposite.so.1.0.0
 *      used by /opt/icedtea-bin-3.0.1/jre/lib/amd64/libawt_xawt.so (dev-java/icedtea-bin-3.0.1)
Use emerge @preserved-rebuild to rebuild packages using these libraries

I did as expected, which reemerged dev-java/icedtea-bin-3.0.1, and the message reappeared.

I was able to workaround this specifying USE=headless-awt and reemerge.



Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install =dev-java/icedtea-bin-7.2.6.6-r1, x11-libs/libXcomposite should be installed alongside (haven't tested the last one though)
2. upgrade to =dev-java/icedtea-bin-3.0.1
3. deinstall x11-libs/libXcomposite and =dev-java/icedtea-bin-7.2.6.6-r1
4. see message:
!!! existing preserved libs:
>>> package: x11-libs/libXcomposite-0.4.4-r1
 *  - /usr/lib64/libXcomposite.so.1
 *  - /usr/lib64/libXcomposite.so.1.0.0
 *      used by /opt/icedtea-bin-3.0.1/jre/lib/amd64/libawt_xawt.so (dev-java/icedtea-bin-3.0.1)
Use emerge @preserved-rebuild to rebuild packages using these libraries

5. reinstall dev-java/icedtea-bin with emerge @preserved-rebuild
6. see message again.




Workaround:
emerge dev-java/icedtea-bin with use=headless-awt did remove the link dependency on x11-libs/libXcomposite.

Hmm I did go through these very careful a while back. This one must be new. I'll fix it on the next upstream release, which will probably be quite soon now.

Version 3.0.1 is gone. Closing.
