Bug#631813: scilab: launch script failure with 32 bits userland

[Nicolas Schodet]

Hello,

I have the same problem:

% scilab

Could not load JVM dynamic library (libjava).
Error: libjvm.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
If you are using a binary version of Scilab, please report a bug http://bugzilla.scilab.org/.
If you are using a self-built version of Scilab, update the script bin/scilab to provide the path to the JVM.
The problem might be related to SELinux. Try to deactivate it.

Scilab cannot open JVM library.

% MODEL=i686 scilab

--- OK, working.


The problem is that the script uses "uname -a" to find the MODEL.
"dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH" may be better for debian systems.


Thanks,

Nicolas.
