Description of problem: The package does not seem to require whatever package actually contains libjavaplugin.so Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-plugin-1.4.2.0-40jpp_100rh Steps to Reproduce: 1. install java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-plugin 2. look at the dead link in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/ 3. Additional info: This is on x86-64. Does a libjavaplugin.so exist in some other java package?
Yes, the plugin file exists as /usr/lib/gcj-4.1.1/libgcjwebplugin.so in the libgcj sub-package of the gcc rpm. The java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-plugin sub-package contains the following lines: Requires(post): libgcj%{gccsuffix} >= %{gccver} Requires(postun): libgcj%{gccsuffix} >= %{gccver} Maybe that's not enough, and I also need: Requires: libgcj%{gccsuffix} >= %{gccver} I assumed that Requires(post) implied Requires.
This should be fixed in java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-40jpp_101rh which I just built into Rawhide. Please confirm.
I'm assuming this is fixed in Rawhide. Please reopen this report if the bug appears again.
