Ticket #20662 (closed defect: wontfix)

Opened 2 years ago

Last modified 2 years ago

openjdk6_bootstrap contains only i386 binaries

Reported by: ryandesign@… Owned by: landonf@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.7.1
Keywords: Cc: trog24@…
Port: openjdk6_bootstrap

Description

openjdk6 cannot install on PowerPC because it requires openjdk6_bootstrap which installs only i386 binaries. Either openjdk6_bootstrap should be updated to contain universal binaries, or to use the correct binaries for the machine's architecture, or if that cannot be done, then openjdk6_bootstrap should exit with a fatal error message when used on PowerPC (see the wine port for code which you can copy to emit such a message).

This was  reported on macports-users by Frank J. R. Hanstick.

OpenJDK doesn't support PPC system. If MacPorts supports explicitly and semantically listing supported/unsupported architectures I'd be happy to add it.
