Of course "the problem is gone"... you removed it. :P Anyway, the emul-linux-x86-java package is a set of 32-bit libraries. Packages requiring a 32-bit version of Java on amd64 *must* explicitly *DEPEND on app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-java. The package does *not* fulfill the virtual, since the virtual is meant for native code. That means that only 64-bit Java packages can fulfill the virtual on amd64. The current dependencies are correct. To have a fully-working system with both 32-bit and 64-bit Java, you need both. I'm marking this as INVALID. Among all java programs I need one does not work with 64-bit Java, so I have to use the 32-bit version, which works with all the programs I use. For me is non-sense to have 64-bit Java installed (and taking disk space) for nothing. Feel free to edit the ebuild locally in your overlay, then. |
