Re: How to prevent headless JVM (Fedora 25)?

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

 



When I installed Fedora Workstation, it loaded the headless JVM only.  I installed the full JVM, but installing libreoffice via dnf reverted back to the headless one.  It's almost like it considers the headless one to be the default.

The headless package (java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless) is a standalone
package intended to be used on headless servers where the user may not
want graphics related libraries installed.

The headless package is just a subpackage of the main OpenJDK build and
all it is is the full JRE minus some graphics related shared libraries
(which are then provided by the 'java-1.8.0-openjdk' package).

If you are using GUI apps, you just need to install 'java-1.8.0-openjdk'
and you will be able to run GUI apps. Apps distributed via Fedora should
have the proper dependencies (on headless vs full package); if you
notice that once does not, please open a bug against that package.

Cheers,
Deepak
