I believe that line 38 in the groovy ebuild: java-pkg_jar-from asm-1 || die "Missing asm" should be changed to: java-pkg_jar-from asm || die "Missing asm" because the .jar file created by dev-java/asm-1.4.3 is in /usr/share/asm, not /usr/share/asm-1. This is because dev-java/asm-1.4.3 is SLOT="0" The above change will resolve the "can't find asm-1" However, after I do this, I still can't complete the compile of groovy.

Let me give this a bash.
Groovy has always been a bleeding mess. I have added some of your patches now, but it's still not compiling properly. Will try beta5.
I have just tried groovy beta6, compiled using maven, which worked fine. Is gentoo against using maven as a build tool? Is this because maven handles the dependencies rather than gentoo? It's easy enough to take into account doc/jikes useflags through -D arguments to maven, and when the thing is actually run, we can use all the gentoo compiled libraries (as java links at runtime). Would it be useful for me therefore to provide a mavenized ebuild (I'm guessing answers to above questions will probably answer this one...)
The problem with maven is that it downloads its down depencies, and it does it at build time (yes, you can turn the actual downloading off). This means that security patches and other critical fixes we add to our gentoo packages are being ignored by maven-built packages, as maven bundles all dependencies into the final release product. I simply don't see any point in every java project having their own, identical copy of the xml apis, for instance. Even more, when a bug is found in that version, all packages with it must be updated. You can ask maven to generate an ant build-script. That's what I did with the initial packaging of groovy, then I reworked it until it started making sense. If you have the time and inclination to do something similar, I'd be _REALLY_ impressed and much obliged. Frankly, I don't care if the build process uses maven or not, as long as 1) it doesn't download anything during the build 2) it uses Gentoo libraries, not its own libraries from the ibiblio repo 3) it builds *everything* from source code.
I am finding similar build difficulties. However, in addition to the asm stuff, my "emerge groovy" seems to be unable to find the appropriate tomcat5 libaries. So groovy can't find the Servlet classes, for example: arbutus lib # emerge groovy Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-java/groovy-1.0_beta4-r1 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) groovy-1.0-beta-4-src.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking groovy-1.0-beta-4-src.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/groovy-1.0_beta4-r1/work tar: A lone zero block at 5501 >>> Source unpacked.

Who is supposed to set the CLASSPATH so that compiling stuff for tomcat5 works? Is this the developer, system or ebuild responsibility? Confused... --Stuart
Now that Saleem is turning into the Maven wizard, perhaps he wants to employ some of his magic.
Created attachment 55178 [details] groovy-1.0_beta4-r2.ebuild Using this ebuild (sorry, forgot to save the old one, so I cannot easily make a patch), I'm able to build a working (?) groovy. See the ebuild for comments. Not the prettiest of solutions, but it seems to work. Needs a patch to basescript as well.
Created attachment 55179 [details] basescript-1.0_beta4 basescript patched to make certain variables overridable (necessary for the ebuild to work).
Thanks, fixed
