List Archive: gentoo-java
Hello all,
I have a shiny new AMD64 box, and wanted to emerge sun-jdk-1.4.2.10-r2, but
received the following message:
Calculating dependencies
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4.2.10-r2" have been
masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4.2.10-r2 (masked by: missing keyword)
Now according to the Gentoo Handbook, this means that the sun-jdk has not been
tested (sufficiently) on the amd64 architecture.
Can I unmask this package, install it, and then report any bugs I find using
it on this architecture, or is there any overwhelming reason why this won't
work?
Thanks for your advice,
David Emmett
