Java slackbuild from DVD builds i586 package from x64 binary on pure Slackware64 15

Greetings friends,

I want to install java on my Slackware64 15 laptop in order to run aard2 web dict app in Firefox.

I've downloaded java binary package from Oracle website for my arch, changed directory into Slack DVD Extra directory for Java and executed command:

Code:

./java.SlackBuild /home/southernlegends/Downloads/jdk-17_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz

After slackbuild succesfully finished building package, I was presented with this:

Code:

Slackware package /tmp/jdk-17_linux-i586-1.txz created

I'am puzzled with what happened, it seems I shouldn't proceed with installing i586 package on my x86_64 system.

So what should I do?

I think they changed the file name scheme, the SlackBuild doesn't get the arch anymore.
Try changing "jdk-17_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz" to "jdk-17-linux-x64.tar.gz" as said in the README

Code:

Then, run the script like this:



./java.SlackBuild /tmp/jre-7u5-linux-x64.tar.gz

Indeed, following your suggestion, proper package was built.
So, strict adherence to naming convention and layout is mandatory.
Thank you, Paulo2.
