Okay, now got his posting :) > No java available on alpha, arm, hppa, m68k, mips, > sh, or sparc. Seven strikes and you are out twice over... hmm, AFAIK kaffe should support those platforms (didn't ever worked on them). But (as I just said), kaffe ebuild was broken some time ago, didn't check it for a while yet ... Well, I don't see the current lack of an proper java runtime on certain platforms an real blocker for some additional tool. Java generally is designed for a very wide range of platforms and architectures. If some major archs are missing an proper java implementation, then it's a bug, which sooner or later will be fixed. cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service - http://www.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please visit the OpenSource QM Taskforce: http://wiki.metux.de/public/OpenSource_QM_Taskforce Patches / Fixes for a lot dozens of packages in dozens of versions: http://patches.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
