Where does icedtea set java.library.path?

[Rich Megginson]

I'm having a problem with Java IcedTea on F-8 x86_64.  The 
java.library.path has /usr/lib and not /usr/lib64.  This causes problems 
because my java app can't find the JNI libs and dependencies it needs.

public class PropTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String val = System.getProperty("java.library.path");
        System.out.println("java.library.path=" + val);
    }
}

java.library.path=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-icedtea-1.7.0.0.x86_64/jre/lib/amd64/server:/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-icedtea-1.7.0.0.x86_64/jre/lib/amd64:/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-icedtea-1.7.0.0.x86_64/jre/../lib/amd64:/usr/java/packages/lib/amd64:/lib:/usr/lib

If I set -Djava.library.path= it still cannot find the libraries.  I 
thought it would use the default system ld lib path.

Thanks for pointing this out. I am working on a fix.

I committed a fix to the icedtea repository. It'll be in rawhide when 
the next release goes out.
