Vuze conflicts with new java.

LeoSolaris · 2009-03-06 01:06:23

Hey, I did my usual nightly (oh fine, at least 5'th today) -Syu and I get an error saying that vuze conflicts with java-gcj-compat from testing. (Likely because Vuze requires the older name for java.)

Also worth noting that java-gcj-compat has a dep cycle warning:
eclipse-ecj will be installed before it's gcc-gcj dependency.

I haven't been paying attention in the mailing list recently, so I may have missed this if it is already discussed. (If so, I apologize.)

For the time being I am doing without vuze, and will likely start exploring alternative bittorrent clients. (No biggie, always meant to, just never found the time/motivation, since I so rarely torrent.)

Thought I would let y'all know about the glitch.

While the discussion on the AUR page is still continuing, you can install it with pacman -Sd. This will ignore all dependency checks. I've never used the software, but I can confirm that it installs and runs with JRE 6u12 on 64 bit.

I had a feeling there was already discussion about it somewhere.

I need to start using the bug tracker more often, too.

If you are using java from SUN, just install jdk first, then vuze.
