Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2002-12-11 10:51:31 EST

It is actually a bug in libgcj-3.2.1-1.i386.rpm, fixed in 3.2.1-2.
You need to undo the damage manually though (edit /usr/share/i18n/dir).
As libgcj-3.2.1-1 only appeared in rawhide, I don't think I need to add
sed garbage to libgcj's %post.

Comment 2 Peter Klotz 2002-12-12 02:57:38 EST

I think you mean to delete the grepjar and jar lines from /usr/share/info/dir
after uninstalling libgcj.

Comment 3 Jakub Jelinek 2002-12-12 03:08:25 EST

Either that, or while libgcj is still installed change jar to jar(fastjar)
and grepjar to grepjar(fastjar).
