Using jpackage 1.7 on Fedora 7

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If I enable jpackage 1.7 on a default install of Fedora 7 (with all
the Java-development stuff enabled) and try a "yum update", several
things fail. Here's the final output:

Error: Missing Dependency: lucene = 1.4.3-1jpp.18 is needed by package
lucene-devel

rebuild-security-providers is in the Fedora jpackage-utils and not the
JPackage one (and the Jpackage developers indicate that this is
possibly a bad judgement for the Fedora package);
geronimo-specs-compat is a dependency of
mysql-connector-java and, hence, jython and eclipse-pydev; while
Fedora lucene got split a while back into lucene and lucene-devel and
JPackage didn't follow suit.

I tried working around this a bit, but especially the jpackage-utils
dependency seems a bit annoying. (This may have to do with the
current SRPM-as-noarch-RPM problem in the JPackage repository
that means you need to --exclude things twice to get them
really excluded.)

Is the jpackage-utils thing something I should bugzilla at redhat?
Should we worry about the rest of this?
