Description of problem: When run javaws it fails with error: /usr/bin/javaws: line 26: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/bin/java: No such file or directory Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): icedtea-web-1.1.1-1.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run javaws Actual results: error Expected results: help message/correct run Additional info: tested with java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.40.1.10.3.el6.x86_64 there is no error when devel rpm is installed (java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel-1.6.0.0-1.40.1.10.3.el6.x86_64)
With jre only, the java binary is located in /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0.x86_64/jre/bin/java
There is similar problem with java plugin in BZ#731358
When quick-fix is quite easy and although also harmless, i suggest not to respin, and use this fix only when somebody complains. Because it is very rare to have installed java without devel package.
