34 That is something different, when portage is not able to download
35 stuff.

37 What you need to do is to tell portage you accept the license by putting
38 the >=dev-java/... line into /etc/portage/package.license. Or you could
39 add the --autounmask-write switch to your emerge command, and then use
40 etc-update/dispatch-conf/cfg-update or whatever you use to update the
41 config files.
