[gentoo-user] sun-jdk dependencies questions
Why does sun-jdk needs gcc-3.3.6 and and libstdc++-3.3? As I understand sun-jdk-1.6.0.01 is a binary package, and java works just fine if downloaded and installed from Sun site, without portage. Since I don't have enough disk spac fro another gcc, is it possible to somehow let portage handle sun-jdk, but without additional gcc and libstdc++? Thanks, Marko -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Since I don't have enough disk spac fro another gcc, is it possible to somehow let portage handle sun-jdk, but without additional gcc and libstdc++? virtual/libstdc++-3.3 is a virtual that contains nothing but is provided by / depends on libstdc++-v3 OR gcc-3.x. Not both. Unfortunately bug #161953 causes portage to think that as you already have a version of gcc(-4.x) installed and you don't have libstdc++-v3 installed that means you prefer gcc. The solution to that is to manually install libstdc++-v3 (even with --oneshot). The reason is as you say that dev-java/sun-jdk:1.6 is a binary package that isn't ABI compatible with libstdc++.so.6 (from gcc-4.x). And as we don't have the source we cannot fix that with revdep-rebuild. https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=161953 -- Bo Andresen signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Thanks for the clarification. The reason is as you say that dev-java/sun-jdk:1.6 is a binary package that isn't ABI compatible with libstdc++.so.6 (from gcc-4.x). And as we don't have the source we cannot fix that with revdep-rebuild. But I'm already running sun-jdk on my machine that I manually downloaded and installed from the sun site, although I don't have libstdc++ installed. One thing I don't understand is why do I need libstdc++ when using portage version? Regards, Marko -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

In that case I wouldn't be surprised if it occasionally crashes. If you meant 1.4 or 1.5 then they simply don't seem to use the c++ standard library... -- Bo Andresen signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

In that case I wouldn't be surprised if it I'm running Sun jdk 1.6.0_01 as downloaded from http://java.sun.com . I don't even know what ABI is, but I don't have libstdc++ installed, only gcc-4.1.2. I did not experience any crash, although I use it a lot. occasionally crashes. If you meant 1.4 or 1.5 then they simply don't seem to use the c++ standard library... I don't know the difference between Sun and gentoo packaging. Maybe Sun is statically linking that ABI stuff.

I don't know the difference between Sun and gentoo packaging. Maybe Sun is statically linking that ABI stuff. Right. If you chose another download that's a possibility too. In that case you still got the libstdc++.so.5 with the only difference that other binary apps that need it won't be able to share it with sun-jdk. -- Bo Andresen signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Ok, thanks for the explanation. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
