Thanks for the insight Loïc, this would also fix (duplicate) bug #103933
and its numerous duplicates which is about the same issue for all Sun
related java packages. If fix can be applied to lum, it would be great.

Please push this as a SRU.

Bug description:
Hi,

When running java from openjdk-6-jre-headless with an unionfs-ed /, it fails to append the proper library path to locate the libs it needs.

10:48 < StevenK> The problem is this:
10:49 < StevenK> java reads /proc/self/exe and comes up with the full path, 
                 including the bits that are hidden under unionfs, like 
                 /squashmnt or /persistmnt, and returns 
                 /squashmnt/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java
10:50 < StevenK> java then looks for it's libraries in 
                 /squashmnt/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib, and can't find 
                 them.

Adding /squashmnt -> / and /persistmnt -> / symlinks works around the issue.

This typically affects UME and live CDs.

Bye,
