dev-java/servletapi is a very old package, I was working on removing it years ago. It literally is the same as dev-java/tomcat-servlet-api. I renamed it to be more specific, since there is also a resin-servlet-api and glassfish-servlet-api. I created a page long ago to track progress, but its very old and outdated http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/java/wiki/ServletApiToVirtualPackages. Please see about masking and removing ASAP. Should be few if any packages using this as a dependency. If they are, they can safely be switched to the virtual or if need be, dev-java/tomcat-servlet-api specifically :)

Pretty funny... EAPI 6 a package that should be masked and removed... https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/commits?author=monsieurp&since=2018-01-01T05:00:00Z&until=2018-01-03T05:00:00Z
Should we remove dev-java/servletapi with dev-java/sun-jacc-api and dev-java/tapestry then?
(In reply to Pacho Ramos from comment #8) > Should we remove dev-java/servletapi with dev-java/sun-jacc-api and > dev-java/tapestry then? That or switch to java-virtuals/servlet-api, or just dev-java/tomcat-servlet-api. dev-java/servletapi is literally dev-java/tomcat-serlvet-api, just renamed. It predates the virtual, and is extremely old. I was working on removing it when I was a dev in 2008. It amazes me it remains.... Thank you for looking to punt. It looks like dev-java/sun-jacc-api can likely be last rited. Its EAPI=0, and has source/target of 1.4 based on jdk/jre deps. That is ancient stuff. Likely not used or touched in years. dev-java/tapestry maybe best to swap the dep its EAPI-5, so not as outdated providing it builds. Replace dev-java/servletapi-2.4 With either java-virtuals/servlet-api:2.4 dev-java/tomcat-servlet-api:2.4 There is 1 other provider for 2.4, resin-servlet-api. But it has issues with the virtual, per bug 212922, bug 363753 and bug 628452. Those are all basically duplicates, of 212922. Likely go with virtual, but it has issues, and resin-servlet-api is not really current. Likely an older version. Looks like its also failing in bug 310099, may close that as wontfix.
Regarding tapestry, I have tried to change the dep to the virtual... but it fails with: >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/dev-java/tapestry-3.0.4-r2/work/Tapestry-3.0.4 ... !!!

That is odd, could be issues with java-config virtual handling, but other packages should have the same issue. None the less, 2.4 is old and not likely to see other providers for the virtual. The other provider resin-servlet-api-2.4 via virtual is broken due to different jar file names per bug 363753#c7. Rather than using the virtual, just switch it to dev-java/tomcat-servlet-api:2.4 dev-java/servletapi:2.4 -> dev-java/tomcat-servlet-api:2.4 Then tapestry should compile fine. That is the main provider for java-virtuals/servlet-api people use unless they choose resin. Which per bug 363753 using resin-servlet-api via java-virtuals/serlvet-api does not work. Which makes that virtual basically pointless. Really all the resin stuff should be masked and removed. Its versions old, and not maintained. Though may still work. Could have vulnerabilities, etc.

Just rename CDEPEND to CP_DEPEND in all places. That is an auto classpath depend. That way you do not have to mess with matching/mapping depends to classpath, package names, slots etc. Also I would change j{dk,re}-1.4 to 1.6 if you can, or 1.7. Less than 1.6 is not supported with Java 9. Anyway up to you how to proceed. But I would go with CP_DEPEND, tomcat-servlet-api, and 1.6 if you can there.

I omitted the slot. Reasons why best to use CP_DEPEND, prevents such mistakes and reduces ebuild complexity, etc. One of my last contributions :)
