Description of problem: Netbeans (in particular, netbeans-ide9) should require jakarta-commons-logging when installing. The installation provides a (broken) symlink from /usr/share/netbeans/ide9/modules/ext to /usr/share/java/commons-logging.jar. The symbolic link is satisfied if jakarta-commons-logging is installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.1-9 How reproducible: Whenever jakarta-commons-logging is not already installed. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do not previously install jakarta-commons-logging 2. Install Netbeans 3. Build a Netbeans rich client application Actual results: Rich client application does not build because a required JAR is not present. Expected results: Rich client application builds. Additional info:
Charles, Thanks for the bug. Some time ago I noticed this missed dependency too http://wiki.netbeans.org/FedoraPackagingNBWishList#section-FedoraPackagingNBWishList-JakartaCommonsLogging :-( WORKAROUND: Install the jakarta-commons-logging manually via the command: $ yum install jakarta-commons-logging The bug is fixed in the rawhide. Successful koji build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=950395 Changes: - Explicit dependencies on the jakarta-commons-logging package are added (#472825). - Summary is fixed according to the request of Richard Hughes <hughsient>. - Call of the brp-java-repack-jars script is disabled. - The deprecated key "Encoding" is removed from the desktop file template. Note, according to the PackageMaintainers/MaintainerResponsibility [1] the fix will be pushed to F10 after a few days if it builds and works fine.
