A new version of the package dev-java/javacc has been released. It has the release number 4.0. So I adapted the current ebuild for this new version. The only drawback is that SRC_URI points to a secure link that wget refuses to download because of a 'certificate verification' error. Unfortunatly a download via an unsecure connection will be redirected to https and I don't know how to fix this... The followup to this post will contain the ebuild and some additional required files (which are almost copies of the previous versions).

In the future, please attach tarballs. Instead, attach the individual files as text/plain. This allows them to be viewed within a browser. Note: you should only attach the ebuild itself, and any other files you need to build. This excludes the Manifest and digest files. Additionally, when there are existing ebuilds in portage, as there is in this case, please attach diffs, instead of the entire ebuild. This allows developers to know right up what changes were necessary. As for the ebuild: * You should try to use the P variables as much as possible in the SRC_URI. This helps make it easier to do version bumps, as it would be one less thing that needs to be modified. So, SRC_URI would be https://${PN}.dev.java.net/files/documents/17/26783/${P}src.tar.gz * Define S=${WORKDIR}/${PN}. src_compile and src_install will automatically cd into ${S} for you.
(In reply to comment #2) > In the future, please attach tarballs. Instead, attach the individual files as Sorry about the type. Meant to say please _don't_ attach tarballs.
Fixed in CVS. THanks for reporting.
