#42105: fop and other java ports should check for JVM on activation --------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: macports.5.msliczniak@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: fop | --------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Replying to [comment:3 macports.5.msliczniak@…]:
I'm saying that when I log in to the Mac OS GUI as a user not in the admin group and then /usr/bin/login -p ... to one that is so that I can run sudo port install ... in the cases of ports that run /usr/bin/java I don't get the dialog explaining that there is no java installed and that something should be added to the installation or faq page detailing what java you might need on what OS X version.
None of that behavior is because of MacPorts, and we cannot do anything to change that—aside from providing a version of Java within MacPorts to avoid weird behaviors of the system version, which may be something we should try to do, but I don't think anyone has attempted it yet. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42105#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
