Hi, I have a gentoo system with many parallel JDKs installed. java-config -L says [ibm-jdk-1.3.1] "IBM JDK 1.3.1" (/etc/env.d/java/20ibm-jdk-1.3.1) [sun-jdk-1.5.0.06] "Sun JDK 1.5.0.06" (/etc/env.d/java/20sun-jdk-1.5.0.06) [ibm-jdk-1.4.1] "IBM JDK 1.4.1" (/etc/env.d/java/20ibm-jdk-1.4.1) [sun-jdk-1.3.1.16] "Sun JDK 1.3.1.16" (/etc/env.d/java/20sun-jdk-1.3.1.16) * [sun-jdk-1.4.2.09] "Sun JDK 1.4.2.09" (/etc/env.d/java/20sun-jdk-1.4.2.09) [blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.02] "Blackdown JDK 1.4.2.02" (/etc/env.d/java/20blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.02)
This is mainly b/c I want to use this box for Java compatibility evaluation. My main (default) JDK for now is sun-jdk-1.3.1.16. BUT when I try to update dev-java/xml-commons, the JDK 1.5 patch is applied ALWAYS - it ignores the system JDK to be used. SO it seems that in order to update this package I have to switch to a 1.5 JDK - is this right? It doesn't seem so to me...
