Tied of getting glsa-check warnings on sun-jdk-1.5.0.15 when I don't have the latter installed. Run stable, so if this is fixed in a unsable gentoolkit, could that fix trickle down to stable?

Make that "tired" not "tied". Apparently I am tongue tied though :-)
This issue was apparently solved by the gentoo folks some time ago as I stopped getting the glsa-check warning on sun-jdk-1.5.0.15 even though I did not have it installed. Thank you to whomever solved it!
