Everything unpacks ok but when it begins to install I get >>> Install sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.06 into /var/tmp/portage/sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.06/image/ category dev-java sed: can't read /var/tmp/portage/sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.06/image//opt/sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.06/plugin/desktop/sun_java.desktop: No such file or directory the plugin directory doesn't exist in /var/.../opt/sun-jre-bin/1.5.0.06 seems like this might be something that works on the x86 and maybe not the amd64 package?
Is the emerge actually failing, or is it just that one error? In the future, please be sure to post the result of 'emerge info' with your bug report.
Created attachment 76164 [details] emerge info
This error actually stops the build. This is the rest of the error that I didn't previously attach. !!! ERROR: dev-java/sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.06 failed. !!! Function set_java_env, Line 55, Exitcode 0 !!! unable to find the env file: /usr/portage/dev-java/sun-jre-bin/files/sun-jre-bin-1.5 !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. I've also tried redownloading the file from sun and it always does the same thing.

I am just suspicious of this: > !!! unable to find the env file: > /usr/portage/dev-java/sun-jre-bin/files/sun-jre-bin-1.5 Would you happen to be using one of our overlays because in the axxo-overlay the env file is named like this? The amd64 arch teams just tested sun-jre-bin-1.5.0.05 to mark it stable in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116476#c3 so they should have found issues like this but of course sometimes things slip by. Please make attachements of type text/plain in the future so that we can view them with web browsers.
