This is a strange one. Things were emerging uneventfully until last night (previous 'emerge' was probably around last weekend, give or take a little).

Anyway, it's Christmas Eve with more pressing things to tend to. This will get sorted out in the days that come. Merry Christmas everyone!!

Doesn't sun-jdk satisfies this dependency?

2005/12/24, Mike Markowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

I just accidentally zapped all my incoming gentoo-user emails, so
apologies if this is a duplicate question... After a successful "emerge
sync" I tried an "emerge -uD world" but get:

  These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

  Calculating world dependencies |
  emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "dev-java/sun-j2sdk".
  (dependency required by "sys-libs/db-4.2.52_p2-r1" [ebuild])

I thought sun-j2sdk had been removed from portage a while back.  Any
pointers on where I can start looking for the problem here?  I'll start
digging but thought I'd post a note in case someone else has already
encountered and solved this.

Thanks!
Mike

You see that little "f" there next to the ebuild? It has a fetch restriction. If you look a little ways up it will give you the URL to go to to accept the license and download it. After you download the java thing, move it to /usr/portage/distfiles/ then emerge it. I do this all the time and it is a PITA. I wish some other java would work as good so I didn't have to put up with the manual crap.

Oh, as far as I know, this is the only program that has this restriction. I haven't seen any other at least. If you use http-replicator and run repcacheman, it won't even download it from the cache. It's there but you have to get it manually. Sucks huh? Sun did it, not Gentoo.

To err is human, I'm most certainly human.

I have four rigs:

1:  Home built; Abit NF7 ver 2.0 w/ AMD 2500+ CPU, 1GB of ram and right now two 
80GB hard drives.
2:  Home built; Iwill KK266-R w/ AMD 1GHz CPU, 256MBs of ram and a 4GB drive.
3:  Home built; Gigabyte GA-71XE4 w/ 800MHz CPU, 128MBs of ram and a 2.5GB 
drive.
4:  Compaq Proliant 6000 Server w/ Quad 200MHz CPUs, 128MBs of ram and a 4.3GB 
SCSI drive.

All run Gentoo Linux, all run folding. #1 is my desktop, 2, 3, and 4 are set up as servers.
