In any case, the ebuild should not create a (non-existent) link for javaws. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge dev-java/blackdown-jre-1.4.2.02 2. ls -al /opt/blackdown-jre-1.4.2.02/bin/javaws javaws -> ../javaws/javaws (flashing red) Actual Results: The directory directory the link references doesn't even exist ( /opt/blackdown-jre-1.4.2.02/javaws ) Expected Results: Either install javaws, or not create that link. nichoj@gentoo.org 2005-12-20 17:51:45 0000 Please post the results of 'emerge info'. Also, try blackdown-jre-1.4.2.02-r1. I tried both 1.4.2.02 and 1.4.2.02-r1, and neither seem to install that link for me. throw_away_2002@yahoo.com 2006-01-08 21:32:03 0000 # emerge -p info Portage 2.0.53 (default-linux/amd64/2005.1, gcc-3.4.4, glibc-2.3.5-r2, 2.6.14-gentoo-r5 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.14-gentoo-r5 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.13 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5-r2, 2.4.2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.20 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O3 -pipe -msse2 -mfpmath=sse" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -O3 -pipe -msse2 -mfpmath=sse" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo" LC_ALL="en_NZ.UTF-8" LINGUAS="en ru" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X aac aalib acpi alsa apache2 arts audiofile avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 caps cdparanoia cdr cjk crypt css cups dga directfb divx4linux dvd dvdr emboss encode exif expat faad fam fbcon ffmpeg flac freetype gd ggi gif gmp gphoto2 gpm gstreamer gtk2 idea idn imagemagick imap imlib ipv6 javascript jikes joystick jpeg kde lcms libcaca libwww live lzw lzw-tiff mad matroska mbox memlimit mng motif mp3 mpeg mpi mysql nas ncurses network nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl pam pcre pdflib perl png ppds qt quicktime readline rtc samba scanner sdl silc speex spell ssl tcpd theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode usb userlocales utf8 vorbis wifi xinerama xml2 xmms xpm xv xvid zlib linguas_en linguas_ru userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LANG, LDFLAGS, MAKEOPTS Traveling right now, and in a place with a poor internet connection and VERY expensive bandwidth.
