Arch Linux User Repository

Note: When the jre-openjdk is preinstalled --asdeps, and jdk-openjdk is not installed, java-testng installation fails without tyring to install jdk-openjdk or stating that jdk-openjdk is required.

The package also fails for jdk>=18, which is now the default one for the package jdk-openjdk (which I needed to install separately to avoid interactive selection between different versions).

Workaround is running archlinux-java set java-11-openjdk, java-11-openjdk should exist at /usr/lib/jvm/

@JoseskVolpe Setting java-8-openjdk did not work but as you said setting JAVA_HOME to java-11-openjdk and archlinux-java set java-11-openjdk has worked. It was built without problems.

Or you can patch the PKGBUILD to make it compile using OpenJDK 11:

diff --git a/PKGBUILD b/PKGBUILD
index 0b33d53..12d0388 100644
--- a/PKGBUILD
+++ b/PKGBUILD
@@ -20,6 +20,7 @@ sha256sums=('78ccf9122b62a2d4bdff90cab219254997f4120a94da49f72f2df2f2ea65c870')
 prepare() {
   echo "It's recommended to build in a clean chroot"
   unset _JAVA_OPTIONS
+  export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk"
 }

 build() {

Got it fixed! @Vial all I did was the following:

1. Uninstalled any jdk-openjdk* you might have
2. Search for testing on the "Add/Remove Software" window, then click where it says "Dependencies". You'll see "jdk8-openjdk". Click on it.
3. It'll take you exactly to the one you need, install it.
4. Run try installing the "java-testng" again.

Good luck!

Same problem here: as @vial.

Also the test is still failing after setting depends=('jdk8-openjdk').

I have no idea how bartus fixed it. Building with devtools is defintely in clean chroot.

You can easily reproduce the error with extra-x86_64-build.

Well the build just passed like magic ...

official guidelines don't mention that compatibility with devtools should be maintained as well as depends=() should take place in the package section.

Well, that's true. Putting depends inside package() is just a trick for better packaging. And it's widely used for official packages, such as llvm.

For this package, java-runtime in depends is overriding the default java version than jdk8-openjdk in makedepends when building with devtools. Applying this trick can solve this problem.

I'm packaging java-testng in the arch4edu repository which is only building packages with devtools. Could you do me a favor to apply this trick?

@a.kudelin: Thanks, works fine ( had the same type of issue with my python2-scons )

btw. I strictly build packages in the clean chroot and tmpfs aur build -L -f -c -T -D /tmp.

Mostly because it's faster, but also it keeps my rootfs size sane (I don't need no 6GB cuda installation ԅ(￣ε￣ԅ) )
