As far as I can tell, currently, System.loadLibrary() is mostly
unusable for Java libraries because
they cannot influence the library search path. If you want to
transparently load a DSO, you need to
use System.load() and hard-code the path. This probably means
patching upstream sources.
Debian patches the default search path so that System.loadLibrary()
searches /usr/lib/jni for DSOs
with native code. This means that classes which call
System.loadLibrary() just work, assuming that
the Debian package installs its DSOs into /usr/lib/jni.
Can we do something similar in Fedora? We probably want /usr/lib/jni
and /usr/lib64/jni, for
consistency with the rest of the system.
Then the most simple way is to provide symlinks in
java-1.{7,8}.0-openjdk spec

Is it a good idea to install files from RPMs through a symbolic link?
We could use the alternatives mechanism for this.
we *must*
Those will be slaves of javac
I
suspect it's not, which would mean we'd have to use the upstream default
"/usr/java/packages/lib/amd64" in spec files (probably using a macro). If
that path is acceptable, it would be fine with me as well, but it looks a
bit ugly to me.
We can change (add and remove from) this path in the JDKs that we ship,
if we have to.
I would like to avoid unnecessary patching here. Maybe this fix is worthy of upstreaming - to
provide more general search paths?
