kotlin's `-version` argument causes error.

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

Summary

kotlin @1.2.21_0 generates error when displaying version.

Description

Running kotlin with the -version argument: 

$ kotlin -version

generates the message: 

error: no build.txt was found at home=/opt/local/share/java/kotlin

While normally application run errors are the purview of the application developers, this appears to either be due to a missing file, which would be an installation issue.

System Info

  • OS X 10.12.6
  • Java 1.8.0_144

I'll look into it. Displaying the version does seem to work when invoking kotlinc: 

$ kotlinc -version
info: kotlinc-jvm 1.2.21 (JRE 1.8.0_162-b12)

The installation moves build.txt to ${prefix}/share/doc/kotlin/build.txt, but apparently the kotlin binary expects this file to be in ${prefix}/share/java/kotlin for displaying its version. I'll update the Portfile.

In 80119430a019f8c8a7788bfbac98e11b78928ac8/macports-ports:

kotlin: fix 'kotlin -version'

Leave build.txt in its default location, because 'kotlin -version'
expects it to be there.

Closes: #55806
