Subject: [gentoo-java] sun-jdk on AMD64
Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2006 15:07:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200602281507.18966.daisy@xs4all.nl> (raw)

Hello all,

I have a shiny new AMD64 box, and wanted to emerge sun-jdk-1.4.2.10-r2, but 
received the following message:

Calculating dependencies
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4.2.10-r2" have been 
masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4.2.10-r2 (masked by: missing keyword)

Now according to the Gentoo Handbook, this means that the sun-jdk has not been 
tested (sufficiently) on the amd64 architecture.

Can I unmask this package, install it, and then report any bugs I find using 
it on this architecture, or is there any overwhelming reason why this won't 
work?

Thanks for your advice,

David Emmett
