Greetings,
I have a few questions about jdk and 5.3.
1. If one does a src compile, it requires that the linux-sun-jdk to be installed to bootstrap the compile of native jdk.
Why would freebsd not use a binary version of it's own native jdk to bootstrap itself? If that's not feasible, then why would the jdk port not immediately remove all the linux crap that it installs if its not needed? If something is only temporary, then it should be removed immediately after use right :)?
1) I think you are touching into the licence discussion that appeared recently. 2) yes you can deinstall the linux binaries.
New question: Can one upgrade jdk without installing the linux binaries again?
From everything I read online you do not need the linux jdk once you have a working native jdk.
Any idea about the missing browser plugin?

Cheers, Erik
