RHBA-2013:0115 - jpackage-utils bug fix update


Synopsis

jpackage-utils bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated jpackage-utils packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The jpackage-utils package installs directory structures, RPM macros, configuration files, and scripts that provide support for jpackage.org Java packaging. It is required by all packages that follow the JPackage conventions.

  • Previously, jpackage-utils did not install java-1.7.0 directories in the /usr/share/ and /usr/lib/ directories. This caused failures when running the build-classpath script with Java 7 set as the javac alternative. These directories are now created and the build-classpath script works as expected with Java 7. (BZ#865102)

All users of jpackage-utils should upgrade to these updated packages that fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
