I have successfully emerged and used dev-java/ant-1.6.0-r3 and r2 on a ppc (IBook2). When you get a chance would you add ~ppc to the KEYWORDS? It haven't totally tested out the optional ant packages, but at least the following install as well: dev-java/ant * dev-java/ant-optional * dev-java/antlr * dev-java/bcel * dev-java/blackdown-jdk * dev-java/bsh * dev-java/commons-beanutils * dev-java/commons-collections * dev-java/commons-logging * dev-java/commons-net * dev-java/ibm-jdk * dev-java/java-config * dev-java/jdepend * dev-java/jsch * dev-java/junit * dev-java/jython * dev-java/log4j * dev-java/oro * dev-java/regexp * dev-java/rhino * dev-java/xalan * dev-java/xerces * Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge dev-java/ant 2. 3. Actual Results: dev-java/ant and optional libs install on ppc (IBook2)
Ok, this has been added to ~ppc along with all the dependencies. Tested as well.
ant-1.6.0 will be pulled out of ~ppc until the jdk-1.4* mess will be resolved
jdk mess is solved and putted them back to unstable
