Yes, I know. I use sun-jdk-1.5 myself (as generation 2 system vm [1]) as |
| 5 |
well as blackdown-jdk-1.4 (as generation 1 system vm and nsplugin). |
| 6 |
However sun-{jdk,jre} for amd64 does not include a nsplugin (applet |
| 7 |
support), so it won't work for online-banking. For that you'll need |
| 8 |
either blackdown-{jdk,jre} (not yet available in 1.5 version), or a |
| 9 |
manually installed 32-bit sun-{jdk,jre}. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
As for jre vs. jdk you are right. It's just that as portage requires you |
| 12 |
to have a jdk to emerge java programs/libraries anyway I find it |
| 13 |
convenient to just install jdks. That's just a personal opinion though. |
