build log

The build for this package fails due to the interface for JSONArray not being what the code expects.

A quick internet search shows the interface for JSONArray changed between Java 6 and Java 7; I suspect this is the immediate cause of the problem.

The source for Vuze includes a local version of the JSON classes, but the current ebuild deletes this before starting the build. As an experiment, I removed the delete command from the ebuild. This resulted in a succesful build, and a binary that at first glance appears to function. I do not know why the local JSON was removed of course, so this may not be a real solution.
