[gentoo-amd64] What happened to sun-jdk?

[Wil Reichert]

Never seen a license block a package before:

$ emerge -p sun-jdk

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "dev-java/sun-jdk" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.17 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s))
A copy of the 'dlj-1.1' license is located at '/usr/portage/licenses/dlj-1.1'.

- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.16 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s))
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.15 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s))
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.22 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s))
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.21 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s))
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.20 (masked by: dlj-1.1 license(s))
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4.2.19 (masked by: sun-bcla-java-vm license(s),
missing keyword)
A copy of the 'sun-bcla-java-vm' license is located at
'/usr/portage/licenses/sun-bcla-java-vm'.


For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.


Checked the package Changelog, briefly glanced at the license file,
checked the global package.mask, Gentoo web site, and the gentoo dev
blogs.  Unable to find any comment or explanation on why this
happened.  Anyone have an idea?

Now it seems that some licenses (I think where you have to accept an
EULA) are blocked.  If you add ACCEPT_LICENSE="*" to your
/etc/make.conf, then everything is back to normal.

As far as I can tell so far:

ACCEPT_LICENSE="*" will accept all licenses.

ACCEPT_LICENSE="dlj-1.1" will accept just this license in case someone
doesn't want to use licensed software without knowing that they've
added it.

HTH,

ACCEPT_LICENSE is mentioned in make.conf manpage.

I have set it to "* -@EULA dlj-1.1 sun-bcla-java-vm"

or add a line to /etc/portage/package.license if you want to accept a
license to one specific ebuild.

Thanks all.  I see the license bits got added on the 10th of October &
I somehow missed the warnings until now.  Nice feature.
