Which overlay was commons-modeler coming from when you were tried emerging it? emerge -v commons-modeler should tell you this. At some point, jmx was renamed to sun-jmx. This was perhaps a month or so ago, and also should be fixed in the overlays. In general, before reporting badness happening, you also should make sure you a) emerge sync and svn update the overlays and b) emerge -Du world. > This is the second time I had trouble with the /usr/bin/ant script > loading classes into the classpath that I did not want.

That being said, this will probably get a low priority by the developers because a) it doesn't have a lot of immediate benefits, and b), as the Java herd has been short-handed for some time, and already has enough on its plate.

There may be some issues with using more than one of the experimental ovlerlay together, so I wouldn't mix them unless you know what your doing and/or want to help make them play nice :) If you are going to play with fire, I'd recommend using a 1.4 system VM to get the same behavior as is in portage. sys-libs/db was removed awhile ago from gentoo-experimental-overlay. As already mentioned, please do a svn update before reporting badness. Thanks for the input. - Josh (nichoj) -- gentoo-java@gentoo.org mailing list
