It's been awhile...guess I will do a quick follow-up then maybe someone
can close this?

I believe the problem was with Adobe AIR working with my package
manager. For a while after I had this uninstall problem, apt-get would
tell me that there were problems with [Adobe AIR program that I
installed] everytime I tried to use apt-get. I tracked down the file
that was making apt-get install/check/uninstall (whatever it was trying
to do) and removed it. I never had another apt-get error message.

Also, I moved on from OpenJDK and have not had a problem with Adobe AIR
since. I also did a fresh install of 8.04, so...

Can we move this off of OpenJDK and move it to Adobe AIR with apt-get as
an "also affects" and then close the thread? (If I can do it, I do not
know how.)

SIGSEGV while uninstalling Adobe AIR application with Aptana running

Status in “openjdk-6” source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
Binary package hint: openjdk-6-jre

Ubuntu: 8.04 (generic kernel)
OpenJDK 6 JRE: 6b09-0ubuntu2
Adobe AIR & AIR SDK: alpha1 033108
Aptana Studio: 1.1.6.009905 (stand-alone)

Aptana Studio works fine, except for the embedded browser. I used a sample AIR project from Aptana, corrected the *.XML descriptor file for compatibility with my SDK, built it, installed it with AIR Application Installer, tested it (worked fine), re-executed *.AIR file & began to uninstall, then prior to notification of successful completion this error occurred. Aptana shut down, as did the AIR uninstaller. Afterwards, it appears like the application successfully uninstalled, as it's menu shortcuts are gone and the install directory is gone.

I do not know much about OpenJDK, so hopefully someone will be able to read my attached error file (it popped up on my Desktop after the error).


Random Thoughts:

Could AIR have tried to delete the file after uninstall?

Could having two applications, AIR Uninstaller and Aptana (the *.AIR file was being shown by Aptana in the Projects pane), both accessing a file at the same time cause my error in OpenJDK? If so, who's problem is it? They were both accessing it...OpenJDK seemed to have the problem with it...leads me to OpenJDK as the culprit.
