Description of problem: eclipse-jbosstools-ws package is installing JAR files into wrong locations. According to Java packaging guidelines[1] all architecture-independent JAR files MUST go into %{_javadir} or a Java-version specific directory %{_javadir}-* as appropriate and JAR files using JNI or containing JNI shared objects themselves MUST be placed in %{_jnidir}. eclipse-jbosstools package violates that guidelines by installing JAR files into other directories. If JAR were put into some non-standard directory for technical reasons then these JARs should be moved to proper locations (as described in the guidelines[1]) and symbolic links can be placed in the previous location. Besides eclipse-jbosstools-ws, 9 other binary packages built from eclipse-jbosstools source package seem to install files into wrong location. The full list is is: * eclipse-jbosstools-archives * eclipse-jbosstools-as * eclipse-jbosstools-cdi * eclipse-jbosstools-common * eclipse-jbosstools-freemarker * eclipse-jbosstools-jmx * eclipse-jbosstools-jst * eclipse-jbosstools-runtime * eclipse-jbosstools-usage * eclipse-jbosstools-ws I am not going to attach the full list of JAR files, but this list can be obtained using repoquery: repoquery --repoid rawhide -l eclipse-jbosstools-archives eclipse-jbosstools-as eclipse-jbosstools-cdi eclipse-jbosstools-common eclipse-jbosstools-freemarker eclipse-jbosstools-jmx eclipse-jbosstools-jst eclipse-jbosstools-runtime eclipse-jbosstools-usage eclipse-jbosstools-ws | grep '\.jar$' | grep -v /usr/share/java | grep -v /usr/lib/java Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.0.0-1 Additional info: [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Java [2] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines
I was not aware that the separate Eclipse guidelines was officially approved packaging guidelines. See comment in bug#923270 for more details. Because of the above I am closing this bug now.
