1 Hello !
2
3 I'm having a problem while trying to emerge Java's Eclipse's SDK with
4 "xerces" package.
5 Please see : http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=134232 for log error
6 and details.

8 I then saw on http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/java/tiger-faq.xml that was
9 maybe due to the use of the 1.5 JDK as a system VM.
10
11 So now, I've switched to my 1.4.2.04 JDK but I still have an error
12 ('java-config -S ibm-jdk-bin-1.4.2.04') on the same package.
13
14 Not being an expert at all, I don't know what to do :-(

18 Finally, at the end of the FAQ page I saw this :
19 "4. So I went and broke my system by using a 1.5 JDK... how do I fix
20 it?
21 We recommend people that have been using a 1.5 JDK for a system VM
22 switch over to the migration-overlay. The instructions for using it
23 describe how to make sure everything gets recompiled with a 1.4 JDK. "
24
25
26 Well... the problem now is that I'm not sure to understand how to switch
27 to this "overlay" ? Do I have to rebuild my all system ?
28
29 Could somebody tell me how to check what packages are wrong and what to
30 do ?
31 Thanks & best regards.
