Subject: [gentoo-java] java-config-wrapper and (old) java-config blockage

1 Just sending a heads up, but I will be making an update soon that will
2 make dev-java/java-config-wrapper be blocked by older versions of
3 dev-java/java-config. Specifically, this means < 1.3. If you're already
4 migrated, this shouldn't affect you. If you haven't migrated, this
5 shouldn't effect you. It really only effects people that are migrating,
6 in which case the documentation will be updated according.

9 The reason for this is as follows: <java-config-1.3 installs
10 /usr/bin/java-config. This is the actually java-config.
11
12 java-config-wrapper installs /usr/bin/java-config as well. This is a
13 wrapper, which will call /usr/bin/java-config-1 or
14 /usr/bin/java-config-2 as necessary.
15
16 This results in a file collision, so blocking is necessary.
