[gentoo-user] eselect mystery - please help

[Helmut Jarausch]

Hi,

after an emerge --dep-clean yesterday, I've noticed today that I don't  
have any java-jkd / jre available anymore.
Although I've emerged dev-java/oracle-jre-bin dev-java/oracle-jre-bin
eselect java-vm list
doesn't show these.

How make these "visible" to eselect again?

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut

Yes, I have re-emerged these but it didn't resolve my problem.

Thanks,

How about:
$ qfile /usr/share/eselect/modules/java-vm.eselect
app-eselect/eselect-java (/usr/share/eselect/modules/java-vm.eselect)

It turned out that I had dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin-1.8.0.172 and  
dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin-9.0.4-r2 installed here.
emerge --depclean (I modified the list by hand) removed  
dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin-1.8.0.172 and any new
emerge dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin re-emerged the 9.0.4 version.

But eselect java-vm does NOT recognize any Java-9 package.
The solution was to reinstall dev-java/oracle-jdk-bin:1.8

Thanks for all how had helped me,
Helmut
