Probably there can be a way found to work this around, I'll experiment a bit when my initial build is done (and will publish a repo with this, if anyone's interested). Moreover, it can be bootstrapped with gcj-1.5.0, but only 1.4.2 is avaliable. This can be probably worked around by manually adding java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel to the EPEL build root. I am bootstrapping with one from f9 and it seems to be sufficient. -- Additional comment from lkundrak@xxxxxxxxxx on 2008-03-12 17:01 EST -- Erik: Here's my build of openjdk for RHEL-5, with packages that are not in EPEL: [1]. Dependencies were grabbed from dist-f9, tzdata was changed due to #437150. Should we open another bug for efforts to get that in EPEL, so we don't spam people that were interested in review request into rawhide? [1] http://netbsd.sk/~lkundrak/openjdk-el5/ (will probably be subject to move to http://people.redhat.com/lkundrak/openjdk-el5/ but I am over quota and am waiting for extension approval :) -- Additional comment from erik-fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx on 2008-03-12 17:20 EST -- Great job! I'll try out your repo in a couple of days to install a package called Alfresco which requires Java 1.6 on a CentOS 5 machine. I'll let you know if I notice anything strange. -- Additional comment from fitzsim@xxxxxxxxxx on 2008-03-12 17:25 EST -- Would having java-1.6.0-openjdk in EPEL cause conflicts if it were introduced later in RHEL? -- Additional comment from lkundrak@xxxxxxxxxx on 2008-03-12 17:34 EST -- Thomas: Not necessarily. It could be removed from EPEL for that release. To allow smooth update you would just bump the revision to be bigger that one of the package in EPEL. We can agree on some revision number and keep the revision number of the EPEL package smaller than it. -- Additional comment from fitzsim@xxxxxxxxxx on 2008-03-12 17:52 EST -- I updated the Java release notes for Fedora 9: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Java -- Additional comment from erik-fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx on 2008-03-17 11:40 EST -- (In reply to comment #22) > Erik: Here's my build of openjdk for RHEL-5, with packages that are not in EPEL: > [1]. I've just tried installing a fresh CentOS 5 system with your repo enabled during the installation and your packages were automatically pulled in. However, when installing Tomcat5 I get the following error : Updating : tomcat5 ####################### [48/74] /usr/bin/build-jar-repository: error: Could not find ecj Java extension for this JVM /usr/bin/build-jar-repository: error: Some specified jars were not found for this jvm This failure makes it impossible to run a tomcat based web-application. I've tried rebuilding eclipse(-ecj) against java-1.6.0-openjdk, but this fails. -- Additional comment from lkundrak@xxxxxxxxxx on 2008-03-17 12:16 EST -- (In reply to comment #22) > Should we open another bug for efforts to get that in EPEL, so we don't spam > people that were interested in review request into rawhide?(In reply to comment #27) (In reply to comment #27) > However, when installing Tomcat5 I get the following error : > Updating : tomcat5 ####################### [48/74] > /usr/bin/build-jar-repository: error: Could not find ecj Java extension for this JVM > /usr/bin/build-jar-repository: error: Some specified jars were not found for > this jvm Works for me, on fairly minimal RHEL-5. > > This failure makes it impossible to run a tomcat based web-application.
