Public bug reported: The JAVA package in Octave 3.2.4 is looking for /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/amd64/client/libjvm.so, however the path in Ubuntu 11.04 Natty refers to a path /usr/....../server/libjvm.so.
I have tried a symbolic link to the non-existent path with the following result: $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/amd64/client/libjvm.so ln: creating symbolic link `/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/lib/amd64/client/libjvm.so': No such file or directory As can be seen an error is reported and I can't create the symlink. I'll appreciate advice from someone who has been able to use java successfully in Octave. I need java operation to install the read function to Openoffice Calc files. ** Affects: octave3.2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810027 Title: Java path in Octave To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/octave3.2/+bug/810027/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
