emerge system -vuD
Calculating system dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 8) dev-java/java-sdk-docs-1.3.1 to /
!!! j2sdk-1_3_1-doc.zip not found in /var/portage/distfiles

!!! dev-java/java-sdk-docs-1.3.1 has fetch restriction turned on.
!!! This probably means that this ebuild's files must be downloaded
!!! manually.  See the comments in the ebuild for more information.

 * Please download j2sdk-1_3_1-doc.zip from
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs.html and move it to /var/portage/distfiles
stehus / # nano /var/portage/distfiles/j2sdk-1_3_1-doc.zip

---------

Following instructions to get j2sdk-1_3_1-doc.zip from
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs.html leads nowhere since that file is not
provided there any more.
You can find it as online text though at
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/download.html but that doesnt really help with emerge.

Trying to use package.provided doesnt help also as it seems the entry is ignored
(due to the fetchrestrictions or is this another bug?)


# emerge system -vuDp

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge system -vpuD tries to install dev-java/sun-jdk-1.3.1.16 which depends
on 1-3-1 docs without it being in .../distfiles

Actual Results:  
Failing to install

Expected Results:  
remove the dep or BS fetchrestriction if sun themselves doesnt even provide the
file (?)

It seems that the EOL process for 1.3 has started. The docs should become
available somewhere in http://java.sun.com/products/archive/. Until a new url is
found you can disable the doc use flag in  dev-java/sun-jdk-1.3.1.16 to prevent
java-sdk-docs from being pulled in.

We don't have 1.2 or 1.3 jdks in the main tree any more so I just removed 1.2 and 1.3 slots of java-sdk-docs..
