Firstly, webcdwriter inherits java-pkg which is a Java Generation 1 eclass. Presently the java team is pushing hard to have all packages migrated to java-pkg-2.eclass (or java-pkg-opt-2.eclass which is probably more appropriate for webcdwriter) Secondly, after having a look at this package I noticed that the java component is never actually built. > * Applying configure.patch ... [ ok ] > >Configuring webCDwriter > >Checking for a working javac... not found -> will use precompiled >webCDcreator.jar >/etc/init.d... yes after looking at the configure script I discovered that it attempts to detect javac by compiling 2 example java classes. The is a dependency within one of these classes on javax.jnlp.ServiceManager, at it occurs multiple times within the actual source. This should be available within the dev-java/jnlp-bin package ( I have not yet checked API compatibility )
Created attachment 117707 [details, diff] webcdwriter-2.8.0-r1.patch patch to bump webcdwriter ebuild to java generation-2 eclasses.
Created attachment 117708 [details, diff] patch to fix configure and Makefiles.in This patch does the following. 1) Makes the build accept JAVACFLAGS 2) Makes the build actually attempt to build the java source, instead of just using bundled jar/classes.
Created attachment 117710 [details, diff] webcdwriter-2.8.0-r1.patch Just realized latest ebuild was touched while I was working on the rev bump. This patch brings it into line with the changes that were made. sorry for the bug spam.
Patch committed with a a couple of improvements. Added java to metadata.xml after ack from beandog.
