Description Alan Schmitt 2004-05-28 07:18:29 UTC
When compiling eclipse-sdk-3.0.0_pre8-r3, the compilation got stuck after a while using 100% cpu and doing nothing. The faulty process was javadoc. After a "killall  -9 javadoc" ("killall javadoc" did nothing), the emerge resumed and installation succeeded.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. unmask eclipse-sdk >= 2.9
2. emerge eclipse-sdk
3.

Actual Results:  
installation never completed

Expected Results:  
installation should have completed

I'm using blackdown-jdk 1.4.1

I've also seen this, but only with M9. It appears to happen intermittently.

It does not appear with the sun-jdk. 

Suggestions for useful workarounds are welcome.

Talked one of the eclipse. He says 1.4.2 or newer of the JDK is needed.
Comment 3 Karl Trygve Kalleberg (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-05-31 09:19:55 UTC
I added a check to pkg_setup and a DEPEND=">=virtual/jdk-1.4.2" that
should catch this.

So, if you're trying to run this on a commerical Sun-derived VM, upgrade
to 1.4.2 or newer.
