Re: [arch-general] [arch-dev-public] time to drop openjdk6 ?
Hello, not a very important application, and there may be some workarounds, but with openjdk7 Minecraft [1] fails to load the correct bundled libraries on 64bit. From the exception, it appears that it actually tries to load the 32bit libs, but it fails. Again, this is only for the bundled lwjgl libraries. Just a small point for keeping openjdk6, for the moment. --Chris Sakalis [1] - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39434 On Wed, Jun 13, 2012 at 9:20 PM, Ray Kohler wrote: > On 13.06.2012 21:32, Andreas Radke wrote: >> Oracle has declared JRE/JDK7 the preferred one over JRE/JDK6.
