Description Nils Ohlmeier 2002-01-25 17:23:02 UTC

I have java in my USE. Because of this 'emerge --world update' installed
dev-java/blackdown-jdk and dev-java/java-config. So far so good.
But another 'emerge --pretend --world update' wants to install
dev-java/blackdown-jre although the jdk provides a jre.
If i remove the line 'virtual/jre dev-java/blackdown-jre' or replace in this
line the blackdown-jre with blackdown-jdk in the files
/usr/portage/profiles/default-1.0_rc6/virtuals or /etc/make.profile/virtuals
emerge is satisfied and don't want to install the jre anymore.

Comment 1 Nils Ohlmeier 2002-01-25 17:32:03 UTC

I forget to mention that the fix to modify one of the two files is only
temporarie because it doesn't survives an 'emerge rsync'.

OK, the current world functionality has been removed from cvs emerge and is
pending reimplementation.
