[Bug 219982] New: Java components in OpenOffice.org does not work with Sun Java 1.5 on x86_64
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=219982 Summary: Java components in OpenOffice.org does not work with Sun Java 1.5 on x86_64 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: OpenOffice.org AssignedTo: pmladek@novell.com ReportedBy: pmladek@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: aj@novell.com, eward@novell.com None of the java components works on x86_64 with the 64-bit package when the Sun Java 1.5 is used. For example, it breaks oobase and wizards. The problem is that this JRE includes a hacked version of libz.so. It is named libzip.so, provides similar symbols and cannot be load in an application that is linked against the system libz.so. OOo is linked against the system libz.so, .. No reasonable workaround exists. It must be fixed in the Sun Java. It is already reported, see http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6487640 and http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4953050. The question is how to solve it for openSUSE-10.2. 1. We must make sure that it will work by default. It works with gcj, so I'll add strict dependency on gcj on x86_64. I'll also make sure that gcj is always preferred on x86_64 by OOo. 2. We should reduce the number of bugreports when the user selects the Sun Java in Tools/Options.../OpenOffice.org/Java. We should not add the Sun Java to Conflicts because it would break other java applications. I could disable the Sun Java in the OOo dialog, so it will never appear. It is a bit ugly because the future Sun Java versions could work. In each case, we should mention it in the Release notes. Maybe, the release notes are enough? Andreas, what do you think, especially about the second point? -- 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.

We're only shipping the x86-64 version on the ftp tree, the media will have the 32-bit version. So, let's solve this for 10.3 properly - let's hope for a JVM that works... -- 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.

It should be enough for openSUSE-10.2. => lowering severity to Major -- 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.

It will be used by default even when any other JRE is installed.
