[SOLVED] How can I install OpenJDK?

Software
1

Hello everyone,

I want to run I2P under Haiku and it comes as a .jar file. I tried to run the command “java -jar i2p.jar” but the command was not found. I looked at HaikuDepot and I could not find any java openjdk or openjre packages. Do you have any idea how I can install java on Haiku?

My thanks!

Are you on the featured tab or all packages tab of HaikuDepot?

First, what version of Haiku are you running? If it is beta4, then you can’t. haikuports repository has been disabled during beta5 transition. We seem near to beta5 release, it shouldn’t take long in project time. Though in user time, it may mean a month or two.

So, if you don’t want to wait, you can already switch to beta5 repositories. For this, all you need is to replace ‘beta4’ by ‘beta5’ in repository addresses using Repositories app. Once done, fire up Terminal app and launch pkgman full-sync command. As beta5 is not released yet, it means that few bugs are remaining but it may worth the risk.

I’m on beta 4. Changing the Haikuports repository from beta4 to beta5 solved my problem. Much appreciated!
