Hey all,
For a while i have the the problem that /usr/bin/gcj-dbtool hangs until
i kill it. This is a problem because most java packages use it in their
%pre and %post script, and so all installs (and updates) of java
programs like eclipse and openoffice hang.
After removing all java stuff and reinstalling I think i found the cause
of the problem, or atleast the RPM that causes the problem.
Before installing eclipse-cdt i can run /usr/bin/rebuild-gcj-db (this
calls gcj-dbtool in the end) without a problem. After I install
eclipse-cdt /usr/bin/rebuild-gcj-db will hang and ps ax will show the
following.
14594 pts/0 S+ 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/bin/rebuild-gcj-db
14614 pts/0 S+ 0:00 xargs -0 /usr/bin/gcj-dbtool -m /usr/lib64/gcj-4.1.0/classmap.db /usr/lib64/gcj-4.1.0/classmap.db
14615 pts/0 Sl+ 0:00 /usr/bin/gcj-dbtool -m /usr/lib64/gcj-4.1.0/classmap.db /usr/lib64/gcj-4.1.0/classmap.db /usr/lib64/gcj/eclipse-cdt/cdtmakeui.jar.db /usr/lib64/gcj/eclipse-cdt/cdtmicore.1
The yum install/update will hang untill i do "kill 14615", than it
continues like this

Complete!
>From now on every packages that uses /usr/bin/rebuild-gcj-db will hang
yum/rpm when it is being installed or uninstalled.
Removing the eclipse-cdt rpm fixes the problem again.
