Description Michel Lind 2014-08-18 05:06:07 UTC
Description of problem:
The alternatives link installed by java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless point to /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk.x86_64, but only /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk (without .x86_64 suffix) is present.

Creating that directory by hand resolves the problem of /etc/alternatives/java not resolving to an existing file.

Also, no package owns /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk and /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless-1.8.0.11-15.b12.fc21.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -e --nodeps java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless
2. yum install java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless
3. alternatives --list | grep jre_1.8.0
4. ls -l /usr/lib/jvm | grep jre-1.8.0

Actual results:
Alternatives output:
jre_1.8.0_openjdk	auto	/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.11-15.b12.fc21.x86_64
jre_1.8.0	auto	/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk.x86_64

but only /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk and /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.11-15.b12.fc21.x86_64 exist

Expected results:
There shouldn't be a mismatch. Also, note that the openjdk link doesn't have an arch suffix.
