[Slackbuilds-users] question about libjvm.so symlinks

[Sebastien BALLET]

Hello,

I would like to know if there is any (documented) reasons why the
slackbuilds for (open)jdk create the symlinks below.

jdk.SlackBuild:
cd $PKG/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}
    ln -sf ./java/jre/lib/${LIB_ARCH}/server/libjvm.so .

openjdk.SlackBuild:
cd $PKG/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}
 ln -sf ./$PRGNAM/jre/lib/${LIB_ARCH}/server/libjvm.so .

I've search the web and didn't find anything conclusive about that. In
fact, it seems that symlink is not needed and is more a hack used to fix
some specific issues.


Thanks.
