Description Eric Smith 2017-02-12 19:54:29 UTC
Description of problem:

Attempting to compile a sketch in the Arduino IDE gives an error
"Cannot run program "/usr/share/arduino/arduino-builder"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
arduino-1.6.6-1.fc25.noarch

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Arduino IDE
2. Attempt to compile the default sketch (control-R, or menu Sketch item Verify/Compile)

Actual results:
arduino-builder is not found

Expected results:
arduino-builder should be run

Additional info:
This appears to be a result of the unbundling of arduino-builder; the arduino-builder RPM installs /usr/bin/arduino-builder rather than /usr/share/arduino/arduino-builder.

Hi Eric, the same issue was promptly catched by another tester https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/arduino-1.6.6-1.fc25#comment-560753 (I assume you're not him) but I am still working on a fix since it appears more than a path fix is required to make it work properly.

Please keep testing (and give karma) to the proposed updates so we can keep Arduino fully updated in Fedora.

Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2017-02-26 00:17:51 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 3 Kirill Kolyshkin 2017-04-07 01:34:12 UTC
I am seeing the same bug with the following rpms installed from fedora-updates-testing (F25/x86_64):

[kir@kir-tpad ~]$ rpm -qa ardui\*
arduino-builder-1.0.5-3.fc25.x86_64
arduino-doc-1.6.4-10.fc25.noarch
arduino-1.6.6-1.fc25.noarch
arduino-core-1.6.6-1.fc25.noarch

Indeed, creating the following symlink doesn't fix the issue

usr/share/arduino/arduino-builder -> /usr/bin/arduino-builder

but uncovers more problems, which I was able to fix with a few patches to arduino-builder.

Gianluca, are you interested in those patches?
