Limewire should have pulled in a jre as a dependency, unless you
installed it with the --nodeps option. 

>From the fact that you have java-config but NOT javac or java, I am
willing to bet that you have a problem with your paths. So, my guess
is that you tried to run limewire immediately after emerging it? If
that is the case, what happened is the following:

emerge limewire pulls in a JRE as a dependency, most likely
blackdown, which installs to /opt/blackdown-jre...

it also adds a rule in /etc/env.d to add /opt/blackdown-jre.../bin to
the search path. And emerge then calls env-update. 

The problem is that the shell you did the emerge in, and any shell
you opened before the emerge, read the old /etc/profile when they
loaded, and hence does not no about the new paths to search for the
java runtimes. 

What you should do is run
  source /etc/profile
in the shell you are trying to run Limewire
Or quit your current shell and start a new one and run limewire from
that.
