the ebuild file for blackdown is broken by default. There is no 'sparc' section information even though the section exists. So on an attempt to emerge it it just dies. I made the following changes to the ebuild file and it successfully fixed it. case `system_arch` in ppc) PLATFORM="ppc" FCS="FCS-02b" MY_P="j2sdk-1.3.1-02b-FCS-linux-ppc.bin" ;; i386) PLATFORM="i386" FCS="FCS" MY_P="j2sdk-1.3.1-FCS-linux-i386.tar.bz2" ;; sparc) ;; sparc64) PLATFORM="sparc" FCS="FCS-02b" MY_P="j2sdk-1.3.1-02b-FCS-linux-sparc.bin" ;; Normally the sparc sections are emtpy. this is blackdown-jdk in dev-java.
I need access to a sparc to verify this one. I hope I'll manage to get that within the next few days.
Ok, I think I got this one right, but please do some testing. Reopen this bug if you notice any hiccups. Please also test the blackdown-jre.
The ebuild inproperly leaves ownership. (the new ebuild fixes the sparc problem, but creates uid 1000 as the owner of everythiing (bad). The ebuild needs to fix the perms to be properly owned.
Also, the digest in rsync is goobered. it needs to be rm'd and a new digest built. this fixes it for me other then the default uid 1000 permissions from the previous comment.
Both problems are fixed now. Please retest and reopen if I've made another boo-boo (I'm working blind here...). I also fixed the JRE.
