The user had suggested putting this in the particular ebuild's RDEPEND. However, this would affect all JDKs and JREs. So instead, I propose putting java-config in DEPEND and RDEPEND of java.eclass, which all JDKs and JREs should be inheriting. The ebuilds would then need to be updated to not DEPEND on java-config. Would there be any problem with doing this? If not, is there a minimal version of java-config that should be used? sun-jdk depends on >= 1.2, ibm-jdk-bin depends on >= 0.2.5, and blackdown-jdk depends on >= 1.2.11, so I'm not sure which one should be used. - Josh -- gentoo-java@gentoo.org mailing list
