Bug#547165: gcj-jre contains nothing (contrary to its description)
Package: gcj-jre
Version: 4:4.3.3-9
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
The description says:
Description: Java runtime environment using GIJ/classpath
GIJ is a Java bytecode interpreter, not limited to interpreting bytecode.
It includes a class loader which can dynamically load shared objects, so
it is possible to give it the name of a class which has been compiled and
put into a shared library on the class path.
.
The package contains as well a collection of wrapper scripts and symlinks.
It is meant to provide a Java-RTE-like interface to the GIJ/GCJ tool set.
but the package contains nothing:
$ dpkg -L gcj-jre
