2.2.1 fails to calculate a reasonable default cachedir when jython.jar is loaded as a manifest classpath:

% ls
MANIFEST.MF
% cat MANIFEST.MF 
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Class-Path: jython.jar

% jar cfm test.jar MANIFEST.MF
% cp /opt/jython/jython2.2.1/jython.jar .
% java -cp test.jar org.python.util.jython 
*sys-package-mgr*: can't create package cache dir, '/tmp/bug/jython.jar/cachedir/packages'
Jython 2.2.1 on java1.4.2_11
>>> 


2.2a1 was fine:


% cp /opt/jython/jython-2.2a1/jython.jar  .
% java -cp test.jar org.python.util.jython 
*sys-package-mgr*: processing new jar, '/tmp/bug/test.jar'
*sys-package-mgr*: processing new jar, '/opt/bea-816/jdk142_11/jre/lib/rt.jar'
...
Jython 2.2a1 on java1.4.2_11 (JIT: null)
>>> 
% ls
cachedir/  jython.jar  MANIFEST.MF  test.jar

Are there any plans to fix this one?

I am facing this issue with Jython 2.5 on Windows Vista.

Changed title to emphasize that problem persists in 2.5 and so should be
looked at before 2.5.1

Amit: do you still have this problem in 2.5.1 on Vista?

Closing out, the cachedir can always be fixed through configuration, but otherwise this is something that hasn't been an issue to my knowledge for recent releases
