             Summary: Mark libjna-java + libjna-jni as incompatible in debian package
                 Key: CASSANDRA-8927
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8927
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Packaging
         Environment: Debian
            Reporter: Robert Stupp
            Assignee: Michael Shuler
             Fix For: 2.1.4


Current Debian (Wheezy) might bring {{libjna-java}} in version 3.2.7-4, which has incompatible {{libjnadispatch.so}} because since C* 2.1 we use JNA 4.0.0 (the native stuff changed):

jna.jar includes all binaries for all supported platforms - so there's no need for libjna installed separately.

Since CASSANDRA-8714 has been committed, the incompatibility manifests in {{java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.sun.jna.Native}} (which is caused by outdated libjna-java installed via apt).

Note: Debian jessie adds new package {{libjna-jni}} (4.1.0-1) in addition to {{libjna-java}} (4.1.0-1) - both contain the {{libjnidispatch.so}}. Although these seem to work, we might hit the same issue when there's a need to upgrade JNA to 4.2.x sometime.
