I mean, if the ebuild is marked =virtual/jdk-1.4, then I could understand a potential for trouble. But when it's just marked (whether by laziness or whether it's correct) virtual/jdk, it'd be nice to know whether 1.5 could work. Anyway, since I don't develop in Java, this is really a non-issue for me -- more an academic question and a desire to keep current. I _am_ going to keep fooling with having a 1.5 jre with a 1.4 jdk and see how that works as described in my other post. Thx for the replies! -- Peter -- gentoo-java@gentoo.org mailing list
