I didn't know that. However, I think it might still be nice to have a |
| 7 |
source-code ebuild of the JDK (this is very much in keeping with |
| 8 |
Gentoo's philosophy, after all), even if it does not correspond to Sun's |
| 9 |
"latest and greatest", as the Mozilla plug-in "breakage" is quite |
| 10 |
annoying (for me anyway; I'm sure others agree). |

Is anyone aware of work being done on such an ebuild? |
