Some time ago Gentoo made a fundamental change in the way Java JDKs and JREs are handled, and as per instructions I read somewhere (I don't remember where), I put the following in /etc/portage/package.keywords:
# Core Gentoo/Java Packages dev-java/ant-core dev-java/ant-tasks dev-java/ant dev-java/java-config dev-java/java-config-wrapper dev-java/javatoolkit # JDKs =dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4* =dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5* =dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6* =dev-java/ibm-jdk-bin-1.4* =dev-java/ibm-jdk-bin-1.5* =dev-java/jrockit-jdk-bin-1.4* =dev-java/jrockit-jdk-bin-1.5* =dev-java/blackdown-jdk-1.4* dev-java/kaffe # JREs =dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.4* =dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.5* =dev-java/ibm-jre-bin-1.4* =dev-java/blackdown-jre-1.4* # Virtuals virtual/jdk virtual/jre # Compilers dev-java/eclipse-ecj dev-java/jikes # Documentation dev-java/java-sdk-docs # Misc packages that have been updated to generation-2, # where the generation-1 won't build and/or run properly dev-java/lucene dev-java/gnu-jaxp # These have optional Java support, but need ~arch to function properly # with generation-2 dev-util/subversion sys-libs/db This stuff looks rather out of date at this point. Is it still needed? Is there a newer version, or more up-to-date instructions posted somewhere? -- Lindsay Haisley | "In an open world, | PGP public key FMP Computer Services | who needs Windows | available at 512-259-1190 | or Gates" | http://pubkeys.fmp.com http://www.fmp.com | | -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
