Package: python3-jpype
Version: 1.4.0-2
Severity: normal
Due to how the org.jpype.jar is packaged
(https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/python-jpype/-/commit/44a8befe0b856609a4095f5d9e3979752e367ad8),
jpype.startJVM() doesn't work out of the box as documented in upstream
documentation:
$ python3 -c 'import jpype; jpype.startJVM()'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/jpype/_core.py", line 218, in
startJVM
_jpype.startup(jvmpath, tuple(args),
SystemError: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
org.jpype.classloader.DynamicClassLoader
This is because it's expected to be in
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/org.jpype.jar
(https://github.com/jpype-project/jpype/blob/24a2b95aefc2a59e7cf2c362a92ee5c6b13eb94f/native/common/jp_classloader.cpp#L74)
and Debian unfortunately only moves the jar, but doesn't patch jpype to
look for it in the new location.
As a workaround, one can explicitly add the jar to classpath:
$ python3 -c 'import jpype;
jpype.startJVM(classpath=["/usr/share/java/org.jpype.jar"])'
Unfortunately, this isn't documented anywhere.
