aliz, you already did upgrade this, right?
Comment 3 Maurizio Disimino 2003-02-26 03:56:55 UTC
about this, I think it would be worth to add a couple changes:

1) update the README.JavaViewer file to the 1.2.8 version. 
Here's the file: http://www.tightvnc.com/doc/java/README.txt
IMO, better rename it as "${P}-README.JavaViewer" and fetch it from 
mirror://gentoo/

2) net-misc/vnc provides the same stuff. If already merged, tightvnc will
overwrite almost all the net-misc/vnc files. Solution: add !net-misc/vnc to 
RDEPEND in the tightvnc ebuild and update the net-misc/vnc ebuild accordingly.

those changes are incorporated in my tightvnc ebuild at
http://web.losingtime.net/gentoo/working/tightvnc
it also includes other changes/script, but (IMO) they are not 
that important as the above two points, therefore they can wait.

geep root # emerge -up world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies \
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy ">=virtual/jdk-1.3.1-r7" have been masked.
!!!    (dependency required by "net-misc/tightvnc-1.2.8" [ebuild])


Freshly rsync'd.
