Comment 4 James Le Cuirot gentoo-dev 2015-07-22 07:46:20 UTC
I'm sorry but we've entirely dropped Java support for ia64 now, including all the KEYWORDS. You're the very first person I've spoken to who's said they actually want it and I did ask in the relevant places. You said this is still happening now so you should take the issue upstream to http://icedtea.classpath.org, though I doubt they have any ia64 hardware to reproduce it on.

OK. But where did you ask about Java removal from ia64, please?

There used to be a gentoo-ia64 mailing list years ago [1], but it wasn't active at the time and seems archive-only since 2006. So, where all the gentoo-ia64 discuss takes place nowadays?

I discussed it in #gentoo-ia64 on IRC and mailed ia64@gentoo.org, though I admit that you wouldn't have received the latter. It was also mentioned on the gentoo-dev list, which isn't exclusive to devs but I guess you didn't see that either.

jmorgan probably should have CC'd the gentoo-ia64 list. I'm afraid I wasn't aware of it. Even if you had known, I'm sorry to say that it wouldn't have changed the outcome. The Java team, which currently comprises just 2 active devs, is struggling with years of neglect and keywording for ia64 was proving to be a burden that the ia64 team weren't able to help with. Even jmorgan freely admitted that it is a dying architecture.
Comment 7 James Le Cuirot gentoo-dev 2015-07-22 10:50:26 UTC
By the way, if the only reason you need Java is LibreOffice then it can be built without Java these days. I don't know exactly which features would be missing but I gather it's relatively few and the list is shrinking as time goes on.
Comment 8 Andrew John Hughes 2015-07-23 01:43:54 UTC
We don't support ia64 upstream either. I've never built on it in my life.

2.4.8 is also long dead. If you do want to continue trying, I would start with 2.6.1 when it hits the main tree and use gcj-jdk to bootstrap.

From your build log, it looks like your existing JDK is either broken or, at the very least, runs out of memory trying to compile the tools for the new JDK.

Does ant work with /usr/lib/icedtea7?
