1 Hi all,
2
3 I did an 'emerge --sync' tonight. One of the items on my list of
4 updates was sun-jre-bin. Of course, the procedure is to download the
5 binary from sun and put it in /usr/portage/distfiles.
6
7 Prior to downloading, I unmerge (or thought I did), the previous
8 installation of jre. However, after downloading the new version and
9 checking /usr/portage/distfiles/, I discovered that there are about 3
10 other versions of sun-jre-bin in this directory. Can these be removed?
11 Also, despite the unmerge, there are 3 other sun-jre-bin-<version>
12 directories in /opt. Can these also be safely removed?
13
14 Regards,
