Trying to compile - it dies at this point, not giving a helpful error message at all as far as I can see: /var/tmp/portage/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0-r2/work/j2sdk/control/build/linux-i386/bin/java -classpath ../../../tools/strip StripProperties < ../../../../src/share/javac/com/sun/tools/javac/v8/resources/compiler.properties > /var/tmp/portage/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0-r2/work/j2sdk/control/build/linux-i386/gensrc/com/sun/tools/javac/v8/resources/compiler.properties make[5]: *** [/var/tmp/portage/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0-r2/work/j2sdk/control/build/linux-i386/gensrc/com/sun/tools/javac/v8/resources/compiler.properties] Error 1 make[5]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0-r2/work/j2sdk/j2se/make/sun/javac/sources' make[4]: *** [all] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0-r2/work/j2sdk/j2se/make/sun/javac' make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0-r2/work/j2sdk/j2se/make/java/javac' make[2]: *** [all] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0-r2/work/j2sdk/j2se/make/java' make[1]: *** [all] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sun-j2sdk-1.4.0-r2/work/j2sdk/j2se/make' make: *** [j2se-build] Error 2 !!!

Hi there, Your Java compiler bug is a great mistory to me, for most people it works fine. But in this case it doesn't. Many people have complained of errors in the ebuild but most of them were caused by other factors. One example is GSECURITY being enabled. As I cannot replicate the compile errors and the errors seem unique to you I will not try and fix it any more. Marking bug as WORKSFORME (and everyone else bar 3 people). I am very sorry but there is nothing I can do, Stefan
