Description IBM Bug Proxy 2009-08-28 16:00:19 UTC 
=Comment: #0=================================================
Stephanie A. Glass <sglass.com> - 
When the certification runs were done for all java versions on all platforms it was determine that
all COPYRIGHT and notices.htm files were missing.  This is due to the repackaging of the java by Red
Hat that they are given by the IBM JTC team.  Several of the files are also not in the correct place
per our Sun Compliance information also.

IBM is requesting that Red Hat pull the IBM Java's that reside on the Supplemental CDs for RHEL 5.4.
 It is not legally allowed to ship IBM Java without those files being present.

IBM is in the process of running the same tests on the versions of java that are on RHN.  IBM will
let Red Hat know if there is an issue with those files also.  We will have more information in the
next few days on the RHN javas.  If it is determine we have a similar problem, we will let Red Hat
know immediately

If you have any questions, please contact me immediately at 512 797-6448.

Thank you in advance

IBM has determine that the tar ball that they gave has all necessary files in the correct place.  These issues are due to the repackaging that Red Hat goes through.

But there are no "Notices.htm" files in the java-1.6.0-ibm packages.
Comment 4 Ben Levenson 2009-08-28 17:36:24 UTC 
Please review comment #2 and comment #3. 

* COPYRIGHT and Notices.htm are present in the 1.5.0 and 1.4.2 packages. 
* "COPYRIGHT" is NOT present in the 1.6.0 packages, but "copyright" is there.
* Notices.htm is NOT present in the 1.6.0 packages.

Would you be more specific about what needs to be where? Thanks.
Comment 5 Lillian Angel 2009-08-28 17:39:13 UTC 
I verified this. It seems as if the Java 1.5.0 IBM packages are fine.
Comment 6 IBM Bug Proxy 2009-08-28 17:42:50 UTC 
------- Comment From sglass.com 2009-08-28 13:42 EDT-------
The trouble is not in the RPMs that reside on either the ISOs or RHN, but once you install the java product, they are not in what is installed.  Does that make sense?
Comment 7 Lillian Angel 2009-08-28 17:47:26 UTC 
not particularly. i don't understand. when they are installed, those files do not exist?

Yes, that is exactly what I mean
Comment 9 Lillian Angel 2009-08-28 18:05:01 UTC 
That does not seem to be the case. I just installed the RPMs:

[14:03 towel:i386]$ ls /usr/share/doc/java-1.5.0-ibm-devel-1.5.0.10/en/Notices.htm 
/usr/share/doc/java-1.5.0-ibm-devel-1.5.0.10/en/Notices.htm

[14:03 towel:i386]$ ls /usr/share/doc/java-1.5.0-ibm-1.5.0.10/COPYRIGHT /usr/share/doc/java-1.5.0-ibm-1.5.0.10/COPYRIGHT

I think there must be some special case where this is not happening...

Comment 16 Ben Levenson 2009-08-28 19:41:46 UTC 
I can't find any significant difference between the version we shipped
in RHEL5 GA (1.5.0.3) and what we have in 5.4 (1.5.0.10). Here's a look
at the COPYRIGHT and Notices.htm files in the s390x tarball. None of these
paths have changed:

$ find 1bm-1.5.0.3/ -name COPYRIGHT
1bm-1.5.0.3/COPYRIGHT
$ find 1bm-1.5.0.10/ -name COPYRIGHT
1bm-1.5.0.10/COPYRIGHT

$ find 1bm-1.5.0.3/ -name Notices.htm
1bm-1.5.0.3/docs/en/Notices.htm
$ find 1bm-1.5.0.10/ -name Notices.htm
1bm-1.5.0.10/docs/en/Notices.htm

I'll attach a diff between the 1.5.0.3 and 1.5.0.10 spec files, but I don't see
anything in there to explain the behavior reported in this bug.
Comment 17 IBM Bug Proxy 2009-08-28 19:50:32 UTC 
------- Comment From sglass.com 2009-08-28 15:47 EDT-------
Hi red Hat.
Yes, we have figured out that at least the missing files are due to them being in a different directory structure then what the tool expected.  We are asking the JTC team if the directory structure is that important or just having the file is all we need.  There may be an issue with the tool itself.  We are now checking into that.

The issue we have right now is that the people to answer these questions are overseas and unavailable right now.  We will not have answers until Tuesday next week as it is a country wide holiday on Monday.

Thank you for all you work so far.

New packages are being tested at the moment. We tracked down the issue. Some files were in fact missing or in the wrong places.
Comment 32 Stephanie Glass 2009-10-02 13:26:04 UTC 
As far as in the wrong place:  (want to make sure this is clear)

I am not sure exactly what is the wrong spot.  IBM is ok if the copyright/license/notices files are located either in the common location for all such files or within our java itself as we ship it.

Thanks
