When I try to emerge eclipse-sdk-3.0.0-rc1, 2 or 3, I get the following error msg: kde.cc:538: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size kde.cc: In function `jint Java_org_eclipse_swt_internal_motif_KDE_QString_1equals(JNIEnv*, _jclass*, int, int)': kde.cc:552: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size kde.cc:552: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size kde.cc: In function `jint Java_org_eclipse_swt_internal_motif_KDE_QString_1new(JNIEnv*, _jclass*, _jbyteArray*)': kde.cc:570: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size kde.cc: In function `jint Java_org_eclipse_swt_internal_motif_KDE_QString_1utf8(JNIEnv*, _jclass*, int)': kde.cc:584: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size kde.cc:587: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size ld -o libswt-kde-motif-3061.so kde.o -L/usr/lib -L/usr/qt/3/lib -shared -L`kde-config --prefix`/lib -lkdecore -lqt ld: kde.o: relocation R_X86_64_32S can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC kde.o: could not read symbols: Bad value make: *** [libswt-kde-motif-3061.so] Error 1 !!!

The versions of eclipse-sdk you mention aren't in the tree anymore. The latest version of eclipse-sdk (3.0.0-r3) however is package.mask'ed; that mean's it's not supposed to work right now. There is not much what we can do here. CANTFIX
