I can confirm this bug in ubuntu 8.10 64-bit. On my system I had manually installed the latest jre (1.6.0_14) from Sun into the following directory.
/usr/lib/jvm/jre1.6.0_14 I then added a new java alternative and set it as the default jre using the following. sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/usr/lib/jvm/jre1.6.0_14/bin/java" 1 sudo update-alternatives --set java /usr/lib/jvm/jre1.6.0_14/bin/java To get imagej working with my jre I used a similar command to the one in the patch above. In my case I didn't require the third "dirname" command. $(dirname $(dirname $(readlink -e /usr/bin/java))) I'm not sure whether it's better to use /usr/bin/java or /etc/alternatives/java since they both point to the same location. -- ImageJ chooses wrong java home https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294753 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
