When trying to run one of the batik utilities (rasterizer or squiggle) on F23, they quit with the following exception: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.net.NetPermission" "setDefaultAuthenticator") at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext.java:472) at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(AccessController.java:884) at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(SecurityManager.java:549) at java.net.Authenticator.setDefault(Authenticator.java:127) at org.apache.batik.apps.svgbrowser.Main.<init>(Main.java:411) at org.apache.batik.apps.svgbrowser.Main.main(Main.java:165) Since I can't find a local configuration problem, I guess it's an issue with the policy settings applied to the applications.
Not reproducible for me on F22. I will try again on F23 after I upgrade my system.
OK, thanks for looking into this. I can confirm that the batik applications work on F22. It seems to be an issue with F23.
Reproducible on F23.
Fixed in batik-1.8-3
The fix for this bug is ready and I've tested it. During testing I've found some other problems (such as broken TIFF output, bug #1286220). I will try to fix all these bugs in one update, which may delay the update.
OK, great. Thanks for taking care of all the flaws.
