AFAIK, Sun is the only vendor currently providing a JDK for 1.5. Even then, I believe it is still masked, since it was (is?) a beta. It is also fetch-restricted because SUN makes you agree to a click-through licence before you can start the download, but the ebuild will tell you where to go to download it. You can unmask it by adding: >=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5* to package.unmask. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
