Hmm, I'm not sure how exactly this should be handled, as in who should own it, or if its some other package or what. I'm open to suggestions.
file-collision is reproducable (emerge --info on my box avail. if needed) As to which herd/group/person should own the bug - I'd make a recommendation except that I'm not familiar enough w/ the who does what where etc. ;) Not that you were talking to me... thinking aloud to see if a solution to this conflict presents itself for use by whoever ends up taking the bug: sun_java.desktop is just a link to the "Java Control Panel" Every java vm (or at least both sun and blackdown) have a java control panel (in my kmenu that is. only sun_java seems to put the .desktop entry in /usr/share/applications/) Will Blackdown be putting an entry in /usr/share/applications/ at some point? What's the purpose of this panel? do we really need one for every vm? Could we have just a single java control panel that would take care of all the vms? I don't see a difference between them, or at least not between those of the same 'generation' (eg 1.4) Perhaps the ebuild needs to rename the sun_java.desktop entry to something like: sun_java-1_4.desktop and sun_java-1_5.desktop or maybe a single entry that links to a Gentoo "Java Control Panel" that would link to the appropriate user/system vm There's my thoughts and ramblings - make what you can of it ;) Jacob Floyd
This should now be fixed in the latest revisions of 1.4.2.12 and 1.5.0.7
