Package: eclipse
Version: 3.1.1-8
Severity: normal
So I went to run Eclipse on a computer that has just the Sun 1.5 JVM
and got the following:
rode:~> eclipse
searching for compatible vm...
testing /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj...not found
testing /usr/lib/kaffe/pthreads...not found
testing /usr/lib/j2se/1.5...not found
testing /usr/lib/j2se/1.4...not found
testing /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-ibm...not found
testing /usr/lib/j2sdk1.4-ibm...not found
testing /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-sun...found
[then a dialog box that says "A suitable Java Virtual Machine for
running the Eclipse Platform could not be located."]
Tracing through the /usr/bin/eclipse shell script (and sticking
in some debugging statements), JAVA_HOME is correctly set as of
line 73, but is then completely empty by line 82. I don't really know
what is going on here, the best I can imagine is there is some
weird scoping rule in shell scripts that I don't know about.
I do not set the JAVA_HOME environment variable in my shell before
running eclipse. Also, I think this problem is new and introduced
some time within the last few weeks. It has been a while since I've
run eclipse.
