bug#32965: ‘./gradlew’ fails to compile after Icedtea upgrade

[Mathieu Lirzin]

Hello,

For about 2-3 months doing ‘guix package -u icedtea’ makes the ‘gradle’
build process of a software I am using at work fail.

Here is the output I get:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ./gradlew
:compileJava UP-TO-DATE
:processResources UP-TO-DATE
:classes UP-TO-DATE
:jar UP-TO-DATE
:assemble UP-TO-DATE
:compileTestJava FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':compileTestJava'.
> Could not find tools.jar. Please check that /gnu/store/3b3p13yq4x2db2b5hh47mwazyhy7pp8k-icedtea-3.7.0 contains a valid JDK installation.

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

BUILD FAILED

Total time: 3.407 secs
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Fortunately I am able to roll back, and every thing is fine after that!
However since this issue seems to persist I would like it to be fixed to
be able to drop the ‘--do-not-upgrade=icedtea’ option I am adding every
time I am upgrading.

For now I have no clue regarding the origin of the problem which can be
reproduced from guix e90ce11 with the following commands:

  $ wget http://www-eu.apache.org/dist/ofbiz/apache-ofbiz-16.11.05.zip
  $ unzip apache-ofbiz-16.11.05.zip
  $ cd apache-ofbiz-16.11.05
  $ ./gradlew


Unfortunately the generation manifest containing the working jdk
predates the channel and inferior features so I can't easily describe
how to reproduce the working scenario.  The faulty generation diff is
the following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

/gnu/store/3b3p13yq4x2db2b5hh47mwazyhy7pp8k-icedtea-3.7.0 is
icedtea:out, but the JDK is in icedtea:jdk, hence the error message.
You probably have both icedtea:out and icedtea:jdk in your profile and
icedtea:out is picked first. Could you try removing icedtea from your
profile (keeping icedtea:jdk)?

\o/

Thanks for the diagnose, ‘guix package -r icedtea:out -u icedtea:jdk’
worked nicely!

I was unaware that ‘icedtea:out’ and ‘icedtea:jdk’ were not meant to be
installed in the same profile.  In fact I find it confusing since in
general package outputs are used to add things that are optional (doc,
debug, ...) more than defining alternative.
