Hello all, |
2 |
|
3 |
I have a shiny new AMD64 box, and wanted to emerge sun-jdk-1.4.2.10-r2, but |
4 |
received the following message: |
5 |
|
6 |
Calculating dependencies |
7 |
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4.2.10-r2" have been |
8 |
masked. |
9 |
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: |
10 |
- dev-java/sun-jdk-1.4.2.10-r2 (masked by: missing keyword) |
11 |
|
12 |
Now according to the Gentoo Handbook, this means that the sun-jdk has not been |
13 |
tested (sufficiently) on the amd64 architecture. |
14 |
|
15 |
Can I unmask this package, install it, and then report any bugs I find using |
16 |
it on this architecture, or is there any overwhelming reason why this won't |
17 |
work? |
18 |
|

Thanks for your advice, |
