You mean dev-java/jms ? :) I suspect it has to do with log4j having a
jms USE flag, and that somehow got on the classpath because of ant...
so I'll have to take a look at that.

The most recent version of velocity in experimental is SLOT=1. In
general, you want to do at least 'emerge -u' when emerging Java
packages. This is basically because we can't have a slot dependency,
or more specifically, we can't depend on the most recent version
belonging to a particular slot.

For example, we depend on =dev-java/velocity-1*, to do slot 1..
however this matches 1.4, which is SLOT=0, which you have installed.
So, you'd have to emerge -u to get 1.4-r1 which is slotted.

As always, thanks for the input.
