Description:   Opened: 2006-09-12 09:35 0000
This ebuild (which is currently the only one marked stable) advises:

 * Please visit:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/linux/older_download.html
 * Under Java 1.4.2, download SR3: IBMJava2-SDK-142.ppc.tgz
 * Rename IBMJava2-SDK-142.ppc.tgz to IBMJava2-SDK-142.ppc-SR3.tgz

However, on that site the oldest available version is SR4.  (There is still a
link there for SR3, but clicking it brings you to a page that doesn't have SR3
on it.)

Suggestion:  Either we need another source for this file (likely impossible due
to IBM's licensing), or a newer ebuild needs to be marked stable.

(I'm installing a new system and, with this setup, have no Java without
unmasking both a Java ebuild and a java-config one.  Not ideal!)

Put exactly this into your package.keywords:
=dev-java/ibm-jdk-bin-1.4.2.04

it will unmask available version without needing java-config update. New java
system will be stable soon.
