Can't emerge kdebase-3.1.4 I looked at eclass-debug.log for the package, this didn't look right, pay attention at java parts: kde_src_compile::configure: myconf= --with-dpms --with-cdparanoia --without-ldap --with-pam --with-motif --with-lame --with-cups --with-vorbis --with-gl --with-ssl --with-pam=yes --with-java=^[[01mJDK_HOME: ^[[0m/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.3.1 --with-dpms --with-cdparanoia --without-ldap --with-pam --with-motif --with-lame --with-cups --with-vorbis --with-gl --with-ssl --with-pam=yes --with-java=^[[01mJDK_HOME: ^[[0m/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.3.1 --with-dpms --with-cdparanoia --without-ldap --with-pam --with-motif --with-lame --with-cups --with-vorbis --with-gl --with-ssl --with-pam=yes --with-java=^[[01mJDK_HOME: ^[[0m/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.3.1 --host=powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr/kde/3.1 --with-x --enable-mitshm --with-xinerama --with-qt-dir=/usr/qt/3 --enable-mt --disable-dependency-tracking --disable-debug --without-debug Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

please run java-config and select again your jdk, that should solve the issue
Ran java-config and set the VM to /opt/blackdown-jre-1.3.1 That didn't fix the problem.
Ok, changed it to /opt/blackdown-jdk-1.3.1 and it worked fine. So it works with jdk and not jre, it would seem.
Ok, it seems resolved then
