Bug#619140: freemind has an issue with OpenJDK in regard to Xalan

[Eric Lavarde]

retitle 619410 OpenJDK keeps FreeMind from using xalan (due to security?)
reassign 619410 openjdk-6-jre 6b18-1.8.7-2~squeeze1
thanks

Hello,

sorry it took a bit of time to go back to this, but now I confirm: the 
bug appears only with OpenJDK, not with Sun's Java, so I redirect the 
bug report to openjdk-6-jre; at best they'll fix the bug, at least 
they'll hopefully provide a work-around, or at very least an explanation 
that might lead to a work-around.

Detailed step to repeat:
1. download test.mm from the bug report
2. install freemind, openjdk-6-jre and
3. start from the command line:
$ JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk DEBUG=1 freemind
4. File -> Open -> test.mm
==> bug appears, detailed errors on the console
5. start from the command line:
$ JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun DEBUG=1 freemind
6. File -> Open -> test.mm
==> no problem, the file is opened and converted!

Note: you might want to delete ~/.freemind/auto.properties between 2 
tests to avoid that FreeMind automatically opens the last map, which 
would be test.mm.

Thanks to everybody who helped pin down the problem,
Eric

PS: if you want to force FreeMind to use a specific JVM, have a look at 
freemind(1), no need to edit the script :-P
