When LibreOffice 3.4.2.3 was built without 'java' enabled, the following warning was given: "You are building with java-support disabled, this results in some of the LibreOffice functionality being disabled. If something you need does not work for you, rebuild with java in your USE-flags. Some java libraries will be provided internally by libreoffice during the build. You should really reconsider enabling java use flag". This gives the user inadequate information & ends with bad advice. See below for more details. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge LibreOffice 2. Read warning messages 3. Actual Results: Warning message above. Expected Results: The warning should read something like this: "You are building with Java support disabled. This is not a problem, if this was your intention, but it will result in some LibreOffice functions not working or not as expected. In particular, help will be available only via the LO WWW site & you will not be able to use LO's database functions. You can download the LO help files from that site as PDF's, which may be enough for your purpose. Further information can be found at http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/w/index.php?title=Java_and_OpenOffice.org&oldid=154444 (no line break)". The final sentence of the current warning message is misleading. The warning needs to be much more explicit about missing functions or should refer users to a Gentoo doc or WWW site (as above) which has full details. Java takes up space, forces users to update many packages otherwise not needed and is proprietory and hopefully will be dropped at some point by LO. Users should not be encouraged to install it.
The warning was updated in live ebuild, so starting 3.5 you won't see it anymore. Closing as fixed.
