Description Stephan Bergmann 2020-03-04 08:49:41 UTC

Description of problem:

I discovered this when trying to do a flatpak build of LibreOffice following the instructions at <https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/flatpak/>.  One component that needs to be rebuilt with %_prefix set to /app (instead of the usual /usr) is bsh, which uses %mvn_install (see <https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/bsh/blob/f31/f/bsh.spec>).

However, the spec file line

  %mvn_install -J javadoc

there apparently creates %{buildroot}/usr/share/java/bsh.jar (and records that in .mfiles) rather than %{buildroot}/app/share/java/bsh.jar, even if %_prefix is /app.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

$ rpm -qf /usr/lib/rpm/macros.d/macros.fjava
javapackages-local-5.3.0-6.fc31.noarch

Comment 1 Mikolaj Izdebski 2020-03-04 09:22:09 UTC

Value of _prefix macro is expanded during build of javapackages-tools and stored in configuration files (incl. /usr/share/xmvn/configuration.xml). Then these configuration files affect runtime of javapackages-tools and XMvn.
The recommended way to work with different prefix is to build javapackages-tools with desired prefix macro.
Another way is to provide custom configuration files for XMvn: https://fedora-java.github.io/xmvn/configuration.html

See <https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/flatpak-rpm-macros/pull-request/3> "Resolves: rhbz#1809931 Let %xmvn_install store artifacts under /app".
