Description Alexander Vershilov 2010-08-01 09:31:22 UTC 
Description of problem:

In all bash files in pki-java tools 'uname -i' is used for testing system architecture. While on many linux system there is other behavior, for example:
------
Red Hat & Cent OS
[root@base /]# uname -i                                         
x86_64
[root@base /]# uname -m 
x86_64
------
Mandriva Linux:
# uname -i
unknown
# uname -m
x86_64
------
# uname -i
unknown
uname -m
i686
------
Gentoo
# uname -i
GenuineIntel
# uname -m
x86_64
------
FreeBSD:
# uname -i
hostname
# uname -m
i386
------

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
