Description Alexey Parshin 2004-02-22 16:10:46 UTC
emerge ntp requires file j2sdk-1_4_1-doc.zip from Sun web site. That file is no longer presented on that site, it's replaced with version 1.4.2.
Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2004-02-22 16:23:00 UTC
please provide more info ... as it is, you havent provided much of anything
Comment 2 Alexey Parshin 2004-02-23 06:56:50 UTC
This is the only information I have. For some reason, JDK doc is in ntp dependancies, and is required for personal download from Sun' site. The problem is - Sun took the required version of the file off from their server. The package name is java-sdk-docs-1.4.1.ebuild and it should be java-sdk-docs-1.4.1.ebuild.
Also, there are other version of the package in portage - java-sdk-docs-1.3.1.ebuild. It's, probably, also using the java sdk doc zip-file not available any more.

My ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86"/

dev-java/java-sdk-docs-1.4.1 is the outdated ebuild, whitch lacks the file portage tells me to download
USE keywords I think is related: "doc java"

java-sdk-docs-1.4.2 (current) is in portage, but for a strange reason, 1.4.1 is prefered (a "locked" dependency (=), perhaps?)
Comment 4 Sveinung Kvilhaugsvik 2004-03-03 16:27:48 UTC
The system defaults to blackdown. Blackdown's version is 1.4.1 That might be the reason for portage to chose java-sdk-1.4.1

(I have tryed to look into it's ebuild, but I can not find anything, exept that it inharites java and nsplugins, but I get noting out of them eather. Perhaps it is becuase I am to tired (it is 1:27 in the morning here))
Comment 5 Karl Trygve Kalleberg (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-02 14:05:34 UTC
The file can be downloaded from, as the java-sdk-docs-1.4.1 ebuild

http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.4.1_07/index.html

I've regenerated the digest, since Sun suck and updated the binary contents of the file without changing the file version name. Again!
