Is this with IcedTea or GCJ? A strangely tricky question to answer with just the buildlog :-) The buildrequires is for simply java-devel which brings in java-1.5.0-gcj-devel by default, these days of course ecj now has a new requires on java-1.6.0-openjdk so both java-1.5.0-gcj and java-1.6.0-openjdk are required to build with java-1.5.0-gcj-devel That said, "java" is surely gij as the java.home is /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj/... and "javac" has to be ecj I'm going to assign this to the Eclipse guys then. FWIW the ecj component in Bugzilla is historical and shouldn't be used any more (it dates back to FC3, when ecj was from a separate srpm). The line giving the NPE is this: return Util.getFileCharContent(new File(new String(this.fileName)), this.encoding); So there are a number of things that could be null there. Is there a smaller sub-set I can use to reproduce this? Should I just try building OOo locally with rawhide ecj set as my javac alternative? Oh, does this *only* happen on ppc64? If so, I'll try to find a ppc64 machine on which to try this. I think I saw it on ppc as well as ppc64 in another build, it doesn't happen on i386/x86_64 in koji. The obvious human-visible thing that has changed since it was last known to work is the #2 situation with java-1.5.0-gcj-devel requiring both java-1.5.0-gcj and java-1.6.0-openjdk through the java >= 1.6.0 require of eclipse-ecj (In reply to comment #6) > I think I saw it on ppc as well as ppc64 in another build, it doesn't happen on > i386/x86_64 in koji. Okay, I'll set up something on a ppc64 box. > The obvious human-visible thing that has changed since it was last known to > work is the #2 situation with java-1.5.0-gcj-devel requiring both > java-1.5.0-gcj and java-1.6.0-openjdk through the java >= 1.6.0 require of > eclipse-ecj Okay. I doubt this is related. So the best way to reproduce this is by 'make build' in openoffice.org/devel ? I'm sure there's a better way, but unfortunately I don't have a ppc to boil it down :-( FWIW simply building the very similar libfonts standalone package with koji build --scratch dist-f10 'cvs://cvs.fedoraproject.org/cvs/pkgs?rpms/libfonts/devel#libfons-0_3_4-1_fc10' succeeds. Could the package be zero bytes on ppc/ppc64? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458817 (In reply to comment #9) > Could the package be zero bytes on ppc/ppc64? > > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458817 Eclipse is in this list: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2008-August/msg00578.html FWIW I tried a local ppc64 mock build of eclipse and it completed fine using ecj. I'm a bit stumped here. But it's obviously an actual issue as bug #458921 seems to be a similar issue. My last attempt to build OOo in koji post-outage succeeded, so I believe that the problem has "gone away" This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Closing. |
