There is working java 1.6 environment set up, but ant still pulls in virtual/jdk-1.4.2... I wonder, is this ok? I can't even find the old java...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge ant

Actual Results:  
wants java 1.4

Expected Results:  
should use emerged java 1.6

please use emerge -t to see what exactly pulls java 1.4
also try USE=java5

Well, here are the results: in any case this package
dev-java/jdbc-postgresql-8.3_p603-r1
wants some older java virtual/jdk-1.5.0 or 1.4 depending on java5 use flag. And if I set java6 use flag, it still uses java5, so problem persists...

Thanks. You currently need to disable java5 flag for dev-java/jdbc-postgresql-8.3_p603-r1 so that java6 flag takes precedence. I'm commiting a fix in CVS for this, so waiting few hours should work too.

Please reopen if that didn't help.
