Source: libequinox-osgi-java Version: 3.9.1-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable Control: affects eclipse
Dear Maintainer, The separation of the libequinox-osgi-java binary package from the eclipse source appears to break fresh installations of eclipse. On a fresh installation of eclipse on buster/sid (using a supported JDK version), it is apparent that eclipse is unable to locate /usr/lib/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.1.dist.jar (configured in /usr/lib/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info). On stretch (3.8.1-10), the relevant symlinks between /usr/lib/eclipse/plugins and /usr/share/java are present. On buster/sid, no symlink is created to /usr/lib/eclipse/plugins, which causes eclipse to immediately crash. Manually installing the following symlink resolves the issue: cd /usr/lib/eclipse/plugins ln -s ../../../share/java/org.eclipse.osgi-3.9.1.jar org.eclipse.osgi_3.8.1.dist.jar -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (600, 'testing'), (200, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.15.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled __ This is the maintainer address of Debian's Java team <https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-java-maintainers>.
