Re: blackdown Java, amd64 and java-package

2004-11-05 Thread Kaare Hviid
http://bugs.debian.org/274844 contains a patch against java-package 0.14
that also takes into account the Blackdown 1.4.2-fcs release from 28th
of September, that apparently fixes some things for upstream Eclipse.

Add the following to /usr/share/java-package/blackdown-j2re.sh in the 
middle where it lists other files:

  "j2re-1.4.2-rc1-linux-amd64.bin")
  j2se_version=1.4.2+rc1
  j2se_expected_min_size=53 # 54748 kB

The make-jpkg program does file-name comparisons to figure out what 
package the file is, but doesn't recognize the amd64 version by default.

 You're using make-jpkg with a reasonably up-to-date java release.  That
doesn't work, because java-package doesn't seem to be very actively
maintained.  You can probably hack the shell scripts to go ahead with the
different version and file size, though.

 It would be really nice if someone who knows what they're doing with java
would keep java-package up to date, so Java could be another one of those
things that Just Works, at least after downloading Blackdown's release.

as for I am new in this list I wanna ask some more questions. Up to now I 
found not very much information how you solve problems with missing 
packages on debian amd64. I search for following packages (or an other way 
how you got it to work):

- Java
Use the backdown version 
ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/linux/devel/lang/java/blackdown.org/JDK-1.4.2/amd64/rc1/

- Openoffice
Install ia32-libs-openoffice.org to get the needed 32bit libraries then 
manually install the i386 openoffice debs (using --force-architecture)

- Eclipse
The official Linux (AMD 64/GTK 2) build from eclipse.org works fine for me.
- Realplayer
No clue, nor do I particularly care =)
