Upstream bug report: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-756?jql=project%20%3D%20NETBEANS%20AND%20text%20~%20crash
(I can't link this to the Launchpad report the usual way because Netbeans has changed bug tracker, and Launchpad will only acknowledge the old tracker's URL.) Netbeans apparently consider this to not be a bug (!), on the basis that it expects some of its folders which are currently stored under /usr/share to be user-writable. Presumably, this is a packaging issue; if the software is going to assume that directories are user-writable we're going to have to move them to dotfiles or the like. It would help to get clarification on exactly which parts of the directory are meant to be writable; "all of it" would a) be horrible practice and b) make packaging it very difficult, because a large amount of fixed content is meant to be stored there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1760907 Title: Netbeans 8.1 crash in splash screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netbeans/+bug/1760907/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
