If not, disable the flag (# echo > 'sys-libs/db -java' >>/etc/portage/package.use); problem solved.
All the way up until the next package which depends on java. Only the first package that is came across is listed as the parent. sys-libs/db doesn't call for any specific version of java. The complaint is that sun-jdk-1.5 is installed but emerge is wanting to install sun-jdk-1.4. This indicates that sun-jdk-1.5 is likely masked. -- Jason Stubbs -- [email protected] mailing list
