In particular, these 2 links are dangling: bash-4.3$ stat -L /etc/alternatives/jre_1.8.0_exports /etc/alternatives/jre_openjdk_exports stat: cannot stat ‘/etc/alternatives/jre_1.8.0_exports’: No such file or directory stat: cannot stat ‘/etc/alternatives/jre_openjdk_exports’: No such file or directory The logic is here in the scriptlet: for X in openjdk 1.8.0 ; do alternatives \ --install /usr/lib/jvm/jre-"$X" \ jre_"$X" /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.31-3.b13.fc21.x86_64/jre 1800031 \ --slave /usr/lib/jvm-exports/jre-"$X" \ jre_"$X"_exports /usr/lib/jvm-exports/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.31-3.b13.fc21.x86_64/jre done Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): java-1.8.0-openjdk-headless-1.8.0.31-3.b13.fc21.x86_64 How reproducible: bash-4.3$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/jre_1.8.0_exports /etc/alternatives/jre_openjdk_exports lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 70 Feb 21 09:28 /etc/alternatives/jre_1.8.0_exports -> /usr/lib/jvm-exports/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.31-3.b13.fc21.x86_64/jre lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 70 Feb 21 09:28 /etc/alternatives/jre_openjdk_exports -> /usr/lib/jvm-exports/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.31-3.b13.fc21.x86_64/jre bash-4.3$ stat -L /etc/alternatives/jre_1.8.0_exports /etc/alternatives/jre_openjdk_exports stat: cannot stat ‘/etc/alternatives/jre_1.8.0_exports’: No such file or directory stat: cannot stat ‘/etc/alternatives/jre_openjdk_exports’: No such file or directory Steps to Reproduce: 1. stat -L /etc/alternatives/jre_1.8.0_exports /etc/alternatives/jre_openjdk_exports 2. 3. Actual results: Symlinks in /etc/alternatives point to nonexistent paths. Expected results: No dangling symlinks. Additional info:
I guess this is similar to the problem in bug #1119100
Hello, this should be fixed in: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-2389/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.31-5.b13.fc21 whhich contains http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/java-1.8.0-openjdk.git/commit/?h=f21&id=e170d8662d94e20ba38c02340b91323565849f1f The build is already in stable. If this update fix your issue, please close this bug as fixed.
The update fixed it. Thanks. For some reason, I cannot set the bug status to "FIXED". I guess that option may be available only to maintainers. I'm picking instead what seems to be the best choice available to me as a user -- CURRENTRELEASE. But I don't think that's technically a correct usage.
