well, for me icedtea works as long as you remove any gcj from the system and |
| 51 |
just compile gcc with gcj use flag, and this will take a very huge |
| 52 |
amount of time, |
| 53 |
let's say that you could go to town (about 15km of distance) for |
| 54 |
christmass shopping |
| 55 |
and then get back and you'll still have it working, especially if |
| 56 |
you're on multilib. |
| 57 |
you'll then need the original sun jdk to compile icedtea6 from java |
| 58 |
overlay. if you |
| 59 |
follow this and build icedtea6 with sunjdk then it will quite build |
| 60 |
and work until |
| 61 |
the new java update will be released. just remember that icedtea6 takes a huge |
| 62 |
amount of time to build too and i don't really know if it really |
| 63 |
worths rebuilding it. |
