See http://bugs.gentoo.org/235870. Add java-config to the list of programs python-updater re-emerges so that this is handled "automagically". This would greatly help newbies and less-technical users of Gentoo Linux not lose more hair. ;-) This will also solve emerge problems in other packages that need to run java-config. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run python-updater 2. java-config doesn't work 3. Re-emerge java-config manually Actual Results: If java-config is run after python-updater, it doesn't work. Expected Results: Java-config should work or should be automatically re-emerged by python-updater.

Well, as you have to manually re-emerge java-config, it's not in there, but thanks for passing it on. Hopefully they'll check it out.
Hit his one today after upgrading to kde-4.2.2. Actually, it probably dates back to the python-2.6 upgrade since python-updater can't be run because 2.5 has gone away. So this was necessary to succesfully finish revdep-rebuild: emerge --oneshot java-config

While emerging antlr, I discovered that /usr/bin/run-java-tool was not executable. Looking for bugs for that package led me here. After re-emerging java-config, run-java-tool became executable, and all the java tools that link to it (jar, java, javac) began working. This fixes emerge problems in a number of java packages. (Added dupe for a protobuf-2.0.3 problem I saw.)
python-updater should already handle it.
