Bug#808908: netbeans: Fail to import previous version settings

Package: netbeans
Version: 8.0.2+dfsg1-5
Severity: important

I just have installed the 8.0.2 version of NetBeans (the one which comes in
testing). I had previously 7.3 an 7.0 installed, but they had been installed
manually, outside the debian package system.

When I launch netbeans, I have a normal dialog to import the settings:

"Settings created by a previous version of the IDE were found on your system at
/home/manolo/.netbeans/7.3. Do you want to import them? [Yes][No]"

When I hit yes, the process begins, buy I get the following error dialog:

"java.io.FileNotFoundException: /usr/share/netbeans/8.0.2/etc/netbeans.import
(No such file or directory)"

When clicked OK, I have once of the following things happen (I am deleting
~/.netbeans/8.0.2 directory to try again and again):



* The program start normally but the settings are not imported from 7.3 (I am
going fill a separate bug for this).
* The program got stuck in "Starting modules".
* The program exits with this message: "java: Fatal IO error 11 (Recurso no
disponible temporalmente) on X server :0. (resource temporally unavalaible).

Once the program could start (in the first option), netbeans is able to start.

I have added this information to another bug (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=805769).

If I put an empty file on /usr/share/netbeans/8.0.2/etc/netbeans.import I do
not get the error, but nothing is imported.

Nothing is shown on console, and I don't know how to enable debug output.
