I tried the jar from gcc 3.3 (actually cvs trunk, but right now
those are the same) with the en-US.jar file from Mozilla 1.1.
It worked fine.  Based on this I think this problem is fixed on
the trunk.  FYI, HTH, etc.



Comment 2 Ville Skyttä 2003-01-27 20:19:34 UTC
I've seen the "jar" from libgcj fail a number of times as well.  Would it be
possible to provide an update-alternatives symlink target for it?  That way it
would be easier to cleanly replace the libgcj one with a version that comes with
the user's JDK of choice.


Comment 3 Nakai 2004-09-09 08:43:40 UTC
Does this bug happen today? Anyone?

Comment 4 Tom Tromey 2004-09-09 14:56:10 UTC
There is still a problem with the jar on FC 2,
though it appears to be a different bug:

opsy. jar xvvf /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.2/chrome/classic.jar Error! CRCs
do not match! Got e269f315, expected 50c4bef4

It also happens with a recent gcc head CVS jar.


Comment 5 Tom Tromey 2004-09-23 23:42:46 UTC
I checked in a fix for this.
It is here:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java-patches/2004-q3/msg01018.html

Jakub, if you want I can put this on the RH branch in gcc cvs.


Comment 6 Jakub Jelinek 2004-10-07 13:12:45 UTC
Should be fixed in gcc-3.4.2-5.
