When emerging java-gnome-2.6.0.1-r1 I get an installation error that it cannot stat the 'api/resources/*'. That directory doesn't exist in the build tree. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge sync 2. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge java-gnome Actual Results: /bin/install -c -m644 api/resources/* /var/tmp/portage/java-gnome-2.6.0.1-r1/image//usr/share/doc/java-gnome-2.6/api/core/resources/ /bin/install: cannot stat `api/resources/*': No such file or directory make[1]: *** [install] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/java-gnome-2.6.0.1-r1/work/java-gnome-2.6.0.1/doc-core' make: *** [install] Error 1 !!! ERROR: dev-java/java-gnome-2.6.0.1-r1 failed. !!! Function src_install, Line 43, Exitcode 2 !!! (no error message) Expected Results: Installation of java-gnome 2.6. It seems that this bug has been reported in comments to other bug-reports, but still haven't been fixed. It completely blocks the install so I wonder how other people can install it? Maybe I'm missing some important package, or missed setting an important USE flag. Then I tried with setting default JVM with java-config to both blackdown and sun-j2sdk, but got the same error. Another possible reason for the error is that I manually edited the ebuild to change the ~x86 in KEYWORDS to x86.

One suggestion I might offer is to try emerging it USE=-doc as the error you got is in the javadoc generation. [I didn't have any problem with this, but it's worth a try] In a related note, I've been tracking CVS for this for a while, and am working on ebuilds for java-gnome 2.8.2 as the moment. The 2.8 release series fixed a huge pile of bugs, so hopefully you'll have better luck with them. The catch is they also changed the internal layout quite a bit, so it's taking a bit of doing to get the ebuilds right. AfC
I have this same problem. I have tryed the USE="-doc" and then emerge java-gnome but it still fails with the same error.
I followed up with Cookie personally; he ended up trying the new java-gnome 2.8.2 ebuilds, and they worked for him. Might want to try there. [java-gnome 2.6.x upstream is buggy as hell, so we should just deprecate it and be done wit it] AfC
Since you're our official java-gnome maintainer, I'm shuffling this your way now.
Unless anyone objects, I'm going to close this. With Gnome 2.8 stable, there is no longer any reason for java-gnome 2.6 to be around. As mentioned, it's broken as all hell anyway. Bitch at me in the next 24 hours if you disagree... AfC
Grr. I need more permissions in this bugzilla to actually close bugs. One of these days I'll need to finish that damn quiz. "Closing" per agreement from user. AfC
