Package: openjdk-7-jre-headless
Version: 7u71-2.5.3-2~deb7u1_amd64
Severity: normal
Hi,
I have configured dpkg to disable installation of man page
(path-exclude /usr/share/man/*). It works fine for all packages expect
for openjdk-7-jre-headless package.
Problem is located into the postint script file line 65. This script
don't test that /usr/share/man/man1 exist so update-alternatives
failed with the following error:
Setting up openjdk-7-jre-headless:amd64 (7u71-2.5.3-2~deb7u1) ...
update-alternatives: using
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java to provide
/usr/bin/java (java) in auto mode
update-alternatives: error: error creating symbolic link
`/usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz.dpkg-tmp': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing openjdk-7-jre-headless:amd64 (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Other packages gracefully handled absence of man folder, for example if i
try to install nano i have the following output
Setting up nano (2.2.6-1+b1) ...
update-alternatives: using /bin/nano to provide /usr/bin/editor
(editor) in auto mode
update-alternatives: warning: skip creation of
/usr/share/man/man1/editor.1.gz because associated file
/usr/share/man/man1/nano.1.gz (of link group editor) doesn't exist
update-alternatives: using /bin/nano to provide /usr/bin/pico (pico)
in auto mode
update-alternatives: warning: skip creation of
/usr/share/man/man1/pico.1.gz because associated file
/usr/share/man/man1/nano.1.gz (of link group pico) doesn't exist
Can you please fix the postint script file to allow to install
openjdk-7-jre-headless without the need of man folder.
Best Regards,
Tangi COLIN
