vildoko: ping09:50
dokovil:pong10:22
villooking at the eclipse-cdt build traces, i found that we do not have eclipse-3.2.1 for sparc10:24
vilsome platform dependent sources for sparc are missing in the upstream10:24
vilis it ok, that eclipse-cdt-3.1.1 will be missing for sparc too?10:25
dokovil: sure, or else fix it to build on sparc =)10:30
vilright, veeeery funny :)10:30
vildoko: ademan had also nice idea that update-java-alternatives will make eclipse use the prefered VM. i guess that the update-java-alternatives can reorder the /etc/eclipse/java_home file.10:35
vildo you agree?10:35
dokovil: I don't know what to agree to ...10:38
vildoko: just asking if you consider this change useful10:40
vilupdate-java-alternatives comes from java-common, which comes from main. so i can only make some diff, but the upload would be yours10:42
dokovil: no, we are not allowed to change the config file of another package10:48
vildoko: ok, so is there other way to make eclipse use JVM selected by update-java-alternatives?10:49
dokovil: yes, use /usr/bin/java10:50
dokobut then you have to check that this version is not configured to point to a vm which doesn't run eclipse10:50
vildoko: understood10:52
vilmaybe /usr/bin/java isn't optimal because the JVM for eclipse is specified by a -vm param rather than the java binary10:53
vilanyway, modifying the eclipse startup script sounds like the prefered way10:53
vilthx for consultation10:54
dokonp10:58
dokobtw, will you be at fosdem?10:58
vildoko: unfortunately not, i will be at a trip in the states at that time.11:02
vili have seen some people discussing it at debian-java11:03
vildoko: still cannot build it at ia64, could you please have a look at http://librarian.launchpad.net/5619195/buildlog_ubuntu-feisty-ia64.eclipse-cdt_3.1.1-0ubuntu2_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz02:02
dokovil: don't know, but that is wrong: /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/bin/java -Dgnu.gcj.precompiled.db.path=/var/lib/gcj-4.0/classmap.db -cp /usr/lib/eclipse/startup.jar \02:04
dokothe 4.002:04
vildoko: oops02:05
vilwhat is this classmap.db used for?02:05
dokoit's a lookup table which binary to load for which .class file02:08
vildoko: i can upload yet another version fixing this but it does not seem to matter so much as i386, amd64 and powerpc builds succeeded02:09
vildon't you know of any ia64 machine where i could experiment with the build. that log is not really very useful02:10
dokovil: no, currently not02:12
vildoko: do you consider s/4.0/4.1 worth making yet another package version?02:15
vili understand it like that it fails to find the precompiled natives only while compiling  the eclipse-cdt. that can be acceptable02:16
dokoexactly, that's not the primary failure02:18

vildoko: yesterday you mentioned that we need to fix eclipse. what is the problem?03:38
dokovil: it's the outstanding SRU, uploaded today.03:39
vildoko: i give up, didn't find it anywhere. where was it uploaded?03:53
dokovil: oh, it's still in the queue, needs manual approval03:54
vildoko: ok, will check that later. there is a long waiting problem with subclipse / subversion in eclipse. don't you know anything about it?03:55
dokosorry, no03:57
vildoko: and finally03:58
vilcan update-java-alternatives set JAVA_HOME system-wide?03:59
dokono03:59
vilJAVA_HOME is a common java variable and is utilized by plenty of others apps03:59
dokono debian application should rely on environment variables04:00
vildoko: this channel is called #ubuntu-java ;)04:00
vilnp, i will find something else04:00
dokomaybe, but adding something like this makes packages very incompatible ...04:01
vildoko: back to the eclipse and jvm09:01
vildo we need to check if the jvm is eclipse compatible?09:01
vilcan the /usr/bin/java be set to a jvm that cannot run eclipse?09:08
dokokaffe, cacao, sablevm?09:10
vilhonestly, i don't know them09:13
vili was just wondering, if we can get rid of all the -vm -install -startup paramters in the /usr/bin/eclipse script09:14
vildoko: does any of kaffe, cacao, sablevm a record in the java-alternatives?09:17
vilin any case -install -startup seem redundant to me09:18
dokoyes, they provide alternatives09:18
vildoko: i just tried to install sablevm and kaffe packages and the only alternatives i get are gcj and sun09:19
dokoupdate-alternatives, not update-java-alternatives09:20
vildoko: ok, get it, we could check if /usr/bin/java is listed in /etc/eclipse/java_home09:24
vilbtw. /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun is still not listed there09:24
dokovil: I didn't do an upload after the sun-java6 upload ;p09:26
vildoko: i will give you rest for today. have a nice evening09:35
dokoheh, np09:35
