Following the new java policy, packages shouldn't rely on packed jars,
dependencies need to be added on our own packages and used.

xerces-2.6.2-r1.ebuild

this ebuild should remove the packed jar issue

xerces-2.6.2-r1.ebuild

this ebuild corrects the DEPEND/RDEPEND problem i had in the past. now i know
how to resolve them correctly ;)

xml-stylebook (stylebook.jar) is still needed as well as packages from
ant-tasks in the tools directory.

We face evils -- Xerces has circular dependencies of the following:

Xerces (xercesImpl.jar)
Xalan which depends on Xerces (xalan.jar)
XML-Stylebook which depends on Xerces and Xalan.
Ant Optional (ant-tasks iirc in Gentoo) which depends on Xalan and Xerces.

What would be the suggested course of action?

xerces-2.6.2-r1.ebuild

ok, updated the ebuild. this one should be suffient since all dependency issue
are now removed. i've also removed the "pointer" to the documentation which was
printed when pkg_postinst() was called.

done for xerces-1.3.1 , i've replaced the makefile with an build.xml which
makes compiling on amd64 possible. the packed jars which come with the tools
distfile are only needed for generating the full documentation:

2. Building Documentation

   You must download the tools required for building the documentation
   from the distribution page (http://xml.apache.org/dist/). Download 
   the following tools ZIP file:

     Xerces-J-tools.x.y.z.zip

i've removed the tools zipfile from SRC_URI, generation of the javadocs is
still possible.

done for 2.6.2, nearly the same here. i've completly removed the tools src
tarball from SRC_URI. stylebook is only needed to generate some kind of
documentation. i've bumped the new one to xerces-2.6.2-r2 , for 1.3.1 the fixed
version is xerces-1.3.1-r1 , btw.

done for version 2.3.0 in xerces-2.3.0-r1. fixed now
