FYI this is already fixed in F15+ where the spec file has been reworked. I'm not sure what you mean by F15+, rawhide? The problem is visible in current git f15 version of the spec file and the latest updates testing package for f15. F15+ means F15 and up so currently F15 and rawhide. This is the latest tomcat6 build for f15 as of now (currently in f15 testing) http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=238903 -lib subpackage has correct symlink into /usr/share/tomcat6/bin as far as I can tell. The f15 spec has no "%{__ln_s} %{bindir}/tomcat-juli* .". Are you sure you are looking at correct spec versions? working on this for tomcat6-6.0.26-21.fc14 comment #1 was irrelevant, this is an f14 bug. I incorrectly referenced f15 in comment #2 due to comment #1. As per comment #4 David is addressing this for f14. tomcat6-6.0.26-21.fc14 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 14. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/tomcat6-6.0.26-21.fc14 Package tomcat6-6.0.26-21.fc14: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 14 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing tomcat6-6.0.26-21.fc14' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/tomcat6-6.0.26-21.fc14 then log in and leave karma (feedback). tomcat6-6.0.26-27.fc14 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 14. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/tomcat6-6.0.26-27.fc14 tomcat6-6.0.26-27.fc14 has been pushed to the Fedora 14 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
tomcat6-lib-6.0.26-16.fc14.noarch creates a bad nonsensical link for the tomcat-juli jars The bogus link is: /usr/share/java/tomcat6/tomcat-juli* Note the wildcard * character is embedded in the link name and link target, these are NOT shell expansions. Link traversal is not subject to wildcard expansion in the kernel, wildcard expansion is a shell construct only. In the following the file names are single quoted to protect them from shell expansion. $ ls -l '/usr/share/java/tomcat6/tomcat-juli*' lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 35 Apr 29 11:54 /usr/share/java/tomcat6/tomcat-juli* -> /usr/share/tomcat6/bin/tomcat-juli* $ rpm -qf '/usr/share/java/tomcat6/tomcat-juli*' tomcat6-lib-6.0.26-16.fc14.noarch $ ls -l '/usr/share/tomcat6/bin/tomcat-juli*' ls: cannot access /usr/share/tomcat6/bin/tomcat-juli*: No such file or directory $ rpm -qf '/usr/share/tomcat6/bin/tomcat-juli*' error: file /usr/share/tomcat6/bin/tomcat-juli*: No such file or directory I believe this occurs because of this part of the spec file: # Link the juli jars into /usr/share/java/tomcat6 pushd ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{libdir} %{__ln_s} %{bindir}/tomcat-juli* . popd I believe what is occurring is that %{bindir}/tomcat-juli* cannot be expanded by the shell because it's non-existent therefore the string is taken verbatim.
