Situation on Hardy Heron is not much better. After standard installation, one has to install: 1) eclipse 2) sun-java6 (and friends) But this lead to a configuration on your system that is polluted with gij and gic settings.
One has to manually set: a) alternatives to sun-java6 b) edit eclipse configuration to use sun-java6 c) edit openoffice configuration to use sun-java6, because it cannot find JRE of sun-java6 Then, still gij, gic and friends are disrupting the party. Deinstalling with dpkg -P of gij, gic and depending friends will sort that out (check that /etc/java is gone and only /etc/java-6-sun is there). Now your system is properly configured to use sun-java6 automatically in all places. All this should be managed from one central point and the system admin should be asked which JRE to use each time a JRE is being installed or uninstalled via package manager, subsequently leading to correct configurations as is described above in the case of sun-java6. -- Eclipse uses /etc/eclipse/java_home instead of java-common scripts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/45347 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
