Thaks, all -- I now have a new Java, and know about a few new utilities. But I'm probably still in trouble. The rest at the bottom.

Now the nifty new tools (thanks for eix!) tell me that 1.5 is all I have. Of course, when I look in /opt, I get a different impression of things. Am I right in surmising that I have all those old versions, and I just need java-config to point to various places to get other things to happen? If so, I'm in good shape, because I just did a user-only config to 1.5 so presumably 'root' is still using 1.4.2. ++ kevin -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
