Is this with a fres install of the FC-development tree?
fres -> fresh
Did you have any additional java packages installed - particularly those using alternatives from JPackage. If you have a different alternative selected /usr/bin/rebuild-gcj-db is not there which is *not* an RPM bug.
Yes, I use jpackage, with the Sun Javac. I see rebuild-gcj-db appear when gcj is chosen. However, I don't see how that's not a bug - sure looks like one to me. I see scripts failing, duplicate packages being left in the rpm database, and unnecessary confusion that the end user should not be subjected to.
If the scripts fail on removal, the package is left installed by design.
Gary - if people have switched to a non gcj java package the slave symlink will not be present. Perhaps the %post packages should use the full path to the file, or the script should not be controlled by alternatives.
No, rebuild-gcj-db should never have been made an alternative. We need to create a separate java-gcj-compat-scripts package that java-1.4.2-gcj-compat depends on and that depends on jpackage-utils. In that package we should put all these gcj-specific scripts. If no one beats me to it, I'll do this next week; there are many duplicates filed for this issue.
