#47717 idm-console-framework: Switch to java-headless (build)requires
Closed: wontfix None Opened 10 years ago by rmeggins.

Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Fedora): Bug 1068147

idm-console-framework or one of its subpackages currently Requires and/or
BuildRequires
java. OpenJDK package has been split and most packages should now Require
package 'java-headless' instead. Requires and BuildRequires on java-devel
remain
unchanged.

Few exceptions where packages can not use java-headless but must keep using
full java package.
 * software using Java awt subsystem
 * software using Java sound subsystem

Your options:
1. Leave this bug untouched and after March 17th 2014 an automated tool will
   migrate this package to java-headless and run a rebuild in Fedora Rawhide.
2. Change bug to 'Assigned' if you plan to review and migrate to java-headless
   manually. Automated tool will not touch bugs that are not in NEW state.

See tracking bug #1067528 or Headless Java change proposal[1] and Java
Packaging
guidelines[2] for more details about this change.

If you have more questions about this change feel free to ask on java-devel
mailing list[3] or #fedora-java Freenode IRC channel (mostly 9:00-18:00 CET).

DS and Admin Consoles are unaffected.

Shouldn't this be the other way around? If you are installing 389-console and idm-console-framework, this means you want the full java with all of the graphics. However, you could install ds-console and admin-console on a server, and never actually run ds-console and admin-console on that server, but instead just remotely manage that server from a GUI, downloading the ds-console and admin-console jars to your local workstation.

That makes sense. However, the DS and admin console currently do not "Require" java at all(except as a build requirement "BuildRequires: java-devel >= 1:1.6.0") - which is why I skipped them over. So maybe nothing needs to be done at all then.

ds-console and admin-console packages might have implicit requirements. RPM will sometimes add Requires to packages based on the BuildRequires. Take a look at the rpms for those packages. If they have Requires: java, then we will have to put in an explicit Requires: java-headless.
