[VisualVM] Downloadable JAR permissions file references missing directories in lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/

[lucaswerkmeister]

The downloadable JAR for VisualVM in the 22.2.0 CE builds, visualvm-installable-ce-java11-linux-amd64-22.2.0.jar, includes entries in the permissions file that aren’t actually included in the JAR:

$ wget https://github.com/graalvm/graalvm-ce-builds/releases/download/vm-22.2.0/visualvm-installable-ce-java11-linux-amd64-22.2.0.jar
$ unzip -p visualvm-installable-ce-java11-linux-amd64-22.2.0.jar META-INF/permissions | grep lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/
lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/i386 = rwxr-xr-x
lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/amd64 = rwxr-xr-x
lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/x86 = rwxr-xr-x
lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/aarch64 = rwxr-xr-x
lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/x86_64 = rwxr-xr-x
lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/x86_64/libjnidispatch-nb.jnilib = rw-r--r--
lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/aarch64/libjnidispatch-nb.jnilib = rw-r--r--
$ unzip -t visualvm-installable-ce-java11-linux-amd64-22.2.0.jar | grep lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/
    testing: lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/aarch64/libjnidispatch-nb.jnilib   OK
    testing: lib/visualvm/platform/modules/lib/x86_64/libjnidispatch-nb.jnilib   OK

The i386, amd64 and x86 directories aren’t included in this JAR, so they should not be listed in the permissions file either. (Usually, “missing” permissions entries are a sign that I as the packager have forgotten to copy a directory out of the JAR, so I don’t really want to ignore these errors in general.)
