Sorry for the inconvienence. Flameeyes already mentioned it to me, and I'm working on a new release of java-config as we speak.
Comment 2 Josh Nichols (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-28 08:36:14 UTC
Fixed in CVS with 2.0.25.
Comment 3 Josh Nichols (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-28 08:38:20 UTC
Whoops, forgot to resolve.

I think this fix is not optimal
- after emerging the fixed version, I've lost "man java-config" completely because the original was overwritten and then removed with this revbump
- if an user runs java-config without any specific number, he is in fact running java-config-2, but "man java-config" is for java-config-1

A better fix would be
- bump java-config-2 to have it install "man java-config" (and maybe a copy/link of it as java-config-2 for sake of completeness)
- bump java-config-1 to have it install "man java-config-1" instead of "man java-config"
