[Bug 737603] Re: JNI unable to find libpam.so

 

This is odd in itself as although libjna-java does munge a library path
together, if the library is not found in the search path it should just
let dlopen do it thing.

This does not appear to be working.

I'm going to put a fresh pair of eyes on this tomorrow morning....

  JNI unable to find libpam.so

Bug description:
  I'm currently packaging Jenkins for Ubuntu; this application has
  native authentication integration through the use of PAM. This was
  working fine i.e. the java native interface dispatcher was able to
  find libpam.so in /lib and all was happy.

  I've just updated my test system and native authentication no longer
  works; the JNI dispatcher can't find the library.  I have done a bit
  of digging and it looks like libpam.so.* is installed to /lib/i386
  -linux-gnu instead of /lib (as on Maverick and possibly earlier Natty
  releases?).  This directory is not on the java.library.path by default
  which I suspect may be the issue (see below for default java library
  path):

  /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/i386/client:/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/i386:/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/../lib/i386:/usr/java/packages/lib/i386:/usr/lib/jni:/lib:/usr/lib

  So I'm not sure whether this is a bug in pam or openjdk but I guess it
  could be either.
