[ERROR] For rh-eclipse47-eclipse-ptp-sdm, found 1 of 5 dangling symlinks at https://errata.devel.redhat.com/rpmdiff/show/177021?result_id=4853557

Comment 1 Nick Boldt 2017-07-11 19:38:54 UTC

The actual file is here:

$➔ file /opt/rh/rh-eclipse47/root/usr/lib/eclipse/droplets/ptp-sdm/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.ptp.linux_9.1.2.201704021416/os/linux/x86_64/sdm
/opt/rh/rh-eclipse47/root/usr/lib/eclipse/droplets/ptp-sdm/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.ptp.linux_9.1.2.201704021416/os/linux/x86_64/sdm: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=cd29df75581523748ae1e2f1a5406f3d3b091078, stripped

But symlinking to a path with an asterisk doesn't seem to resolve for me (on F24 anyway). So I would suggest the symlink remove the asterisk, in order to not get this error:

$➔ file /opt/rh/rh-eclipse47/root/usr/lib64/ptp/sdm

This was probably always broken on 32-bit arches, but no-one noticed until Eclipse moved to /usr/lib on all arches. I fixed in Fedora and back-ported to rh-eclipse47
