[Bug 222596] New: Dependency problem with openoffice 2.0.2: needs "jre-32"
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222596 Summary: Dependency problem with openoffice 2.0.2: needs "jre-32" Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: OpenOffice.org AssignedTo: eward@novell.com ReportedBy: admin@eregion.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Openoffice 2.0.2 requires jre-32 which is ONLY provided by some weird "java emulation package" that wraps all kind of scripts around gcj to fool OOo into "believing" that you have java installed: mathias@pippin:~> rpm -q --whatrequires jre-32 OpenOffice_org-2.0.2-27.12 mathias@pippin:~> rpm -q --whatprovides jre-32 java-1_4_2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-33 Which is pretty much meaningless when you have java 1.5.0 or java 1.4.2 installed. Obvious fix: make OOo require "jre" instead of "jre-32" which then would be provide by any java package, not only this fake one. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Unfortunately, we were solving the JRE dependency problems too close before the 10.2-final and we did not do it perfectly. The 32-bit OOo is able to work only with 32-bit JRE! It dlopens either the libjvm.so or libgcj.so.7 and access the Java functionality this way. It means that the dependency on jre-32 is correct. The problem is that the other JREs (Sun, IBM, ...) does not provide the jre-32. Daniel, we need to add the following provides to all 32-bit JREs: Provides: jre-32 = %{javaver} and the following provides to the 64-bit JREs: Provides: jre-64 = %{javaver} Could you please do it? Or do you know about any better solution how to make architecture-specific dependency on JREs? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

The hard-coded dependency on gcc java was just a workaround.

For 10.2 it was too late anyways. SUN Java 1.5.0 & 1.4.2 now provide jre-32 or jre-64 depending on the architecture. gcj-compat already does ... cacao will do, once I made the update.
