After installing java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64 package there is broken symlink in /usr/lib/jvm folder.

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

java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.60-2.4.2.4.fc19.x86_64


How reproducible:

Install java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64 package 


Steps to Reproduce:

1. yum install java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64
2. ls $(readlink /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64)

Comment 1 Scott Beamer 2013-09-30 03:18:46 UTC 
This also applies to java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel
Comment 2 jiri vanek 2013-09-30 12:40:26 UTC 
Yah. Looks wrong
Comment 3 jiri vanek 2013-10-01 13:27:49 UTC 
Hm. I was not able to reproduce. After all possible install/remove/update/downgrade the links were still valid. Sorry:(
Comment 4 Serge Matveenko 2013-10-01 14:05:02 UTC 
Just reproduced it on the clean F19.x86_64 installation.
Comment 5 jiri vanek 2013-10-01 14:29:27 UTC 
On fresh installation the symlik may be broken. But after update?
Comment 6 Serge Matveenko 2013-10-01 15:18:17 UTC 
Done "yum distro-sync"

The link "/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64" is broken still.
Comment 7 Alexander Ivanov 2013-10-01 15:39:01 UTC 
The link "/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64" is broken still.
Comment 8 jiri vanek 2013-10-01 16:02:27 UTC 
May you install also java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel ? It looks like this symlink is in wrong package - should be in devel, as /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk is controlled by devel alternatives.

I installed java-1.7.0-openjdk*, thats why I have not seen the issue. May you verify my suspicions?
Comment 9 Alexander Ivanov 2013-10-01 16:13:34 UTC 
Jiri, thanks. After installing java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel symlink is NOT broken
Comment 10 jiri vanek 2013-10-01 16:39:25 UTC 
Ok I' have moved the symlink to devel then. It belongs here. Sorry for troubles.
