Description:   Opened: 2007-07-05 19:03 0000
I see there are some versions of JRockit avaliable in Portage, but all of them
ask me to download JDK from the site and put it on /distfiles. The thing is
that there aren't such files to be downloaded.

Asked: jrockit-R27.2.0-jdk1.5.0_10-linux-ia32.bin. At the site:
jrockit-R27.3.0-jdk1.5.0_11-linux-ia32.bin.

Asked: jrockit-R26.4.0-jdk1.5.0_06-linux-ia32.bin. At the site:
jrockit-jdk1.5.0_06-linux_ia32.tar.gz.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
emerge jrockit

Should look into if jrockit provides archives of old versions like Sun does.

I've bumped both 1.4 and 1.5. Will let this open until stable is fixed (i.e.
it's stabilized).

As for old version archives, officially they are provided only for paying
customers, but I was able to download at least 1.5.0.10 just by changing the
link for 1.5.0.11 accordingly. But that's not tied to the license
click-through, like in sun archives. So if we write in pkg_nofetch() something
like "Open $HOMEPAGE, accept license and then downlod version $PV, and if it's
not there, use this direct $link" people might just wget the link without
accepting license and so we might just stop restricting fetch :) Not sure how
legal is that. On the other hand, just googling for "jrockit jdk" first link
will get you to the 1.5 download page with direct links so you also bypass the
license accept...

I think we can mark this fixed.
