Description Jon Severinsson 2007-05-04 17:55:34 UTC

JAXP_14_FCS.class (the distfile for jaxp-1.4) has class version version 49.0, which isn't supported in java 1.4. Thus DEPEND should be >=virtual/jdk-1.5, not >=virtual/jdk-1.4. RDEPEND may stay as >=virtual/jre-1.4

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Innovative way to package stuff, in a .class file, I must say...

I would suggest repackaging it to something sane and put on mirrors, however...
"This project contains the sources for the JAXP Project  at java.Net. Access to the sources are under the conditions of the Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL)."

But... running the .class file you have to accept sun-bcla license. What the hell.

I'd say grab it from the CVS, at least there's CDDL included :)

Raised both JDK and JRE to 1.5 as only jax-rpc needs jaxp (and jax-rpc has already 1.5 as (R)DEPEND).
