Description Alvaro Figueroa (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-12-16 16:24:26 UTC
The ebuild says openoffice depends on jdk 1.3.1, but the eerror message that
gets triggered by if [ -z "$(echo ${JDK_HOME} | grep "blackdown")" ] && [
"${FORCE_JAVA}" != "yes" ], says: 
eerror " # java-config --set-system-vm=blackdown-jdk-1.4.1_beta"
Comment 1 Seth Chandler 2002-12-16 17:36:53 UTC
this message displays the most current version of blackdown, and the package
doesn't depend on the most current version.  i *could* do a generic example, but
the users who are installing OOo using a ~arch profile should know to use
java-config and set the version of java they want to use.  if this ends up being
a problem on a large scale, i'll revise the message, but i think in its current
form a user can easily glean the required information...If you have a suggestion
as to what the message should say let me know through buzilla or email.  I don't
want a user using 1.3.x when they have 1.4.x installed. 

Thanks for your input, i apprecaite any help ya can give me on that error
message ;-)
