The java upgrade guide uses the following syntax for emerging both versions of java-config # emerge -1 "=java-config-1*" "=java-config-2*" when it would be better to use the new slots syntax # emerge -1 java-config:0 java-config:2 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Visit the provided URL 2. Go to section 2, code listing 2.2 Actual Results: Recommends the use of: # emerge -1 "=java-config-1*" "=java-config-2*" Expected Results: Should recommend the use of: # emerge -1 java-config:0 java-config:2 I believe gentoo documentation should be trying to use the new syntax where possible, as it is cleaner than the old syntax, and helps new users understand slots better.
Thanks for the report, sounds like a good suggestion. Assigning to the editor of the document with authors CC-ed, since this seems like an editorial type of change.
Thanks for reporting. Fixed in CVS. In the future, bugs against documentation should be assigned to the owning project, not the original author(s). Authors can come and go, but maintainers are forever. Kinda. In this case, since it's a project doc, it would be assigned to java@g.o -- docs in /proj/ belong to that particular project or subproject. Docs in /doc/ belong to the GDP; docs-team@g.o.
