Yeah, uh, no, that shouldn't be done. This doesn't provide java-environment exactly because it doesn't provide it. If something needs java-environment it means that it needs a jdk package. Not this one.

I think that adding java-environment would cause problems to people who are also wanting to install the package jdk, as that is currently set to provide java-environment.
If you really want jre to provide it, why not add it to the pkgbuild on your local machine? That way, you get java-environment and it allows those who are using this package in order to also install jdk to continue happily.

Because! >:O

Why?
Det commented on 2012-04-02 13:47 (UTC)
No.
tanuva commented on 2012-04-02 13:46 (UTC)
Could you add a provides=java-environment? Otherwise eclipse and tuxguitar for example will still request some other jre that provides this.

The hell with them.

It seems Oracle have changed their downloads so you now need to accept the license before it'll let you download.. This PKGBUILD just downloads a HTML file saying the license hasn't been accepted and the build fails.
I've manually downloaded the jre-7u3-linux-x64.tar.gz from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre-7u3-download-1501631.html, put it in the build folder and the package builds/installs.
Cheers

As was made with the java packages in the official repositories, jdk now provides the jre alongside it, and both packages conflict with each other. During the package upgrade to version 22, act accordingly to your needs. For example, if you have both jdk and jre installed, only jdk will be sufficient, as it now also contains the runtime environment, and jre can be uninstalled. If you have only jre installed, no action is required.
