Code:
emerge ibm-jre-bin
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-java/ibm-jre-bin-1.4.2.04 to /
!!! IBMJava2-JRE-142.ppc-SR4.tgz not found in /usr/portage/distfiles

!!! dev-java/ibm-jre-bin-1.4.2.04 has fetch restriction turned on.
!!! This probably means that this ebuild's files must be downloaded
!!! manually.  See the comments in the ebuild for more information.

 * Due to license restrictions, we cannot redistribute or fetch the distfiles
 * Please visit: http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/
 * Download: IBMJava2-JRE-142.ppc.tgz
 * Rename IBMJava2-JRE-142.ppc.tgz to IBMJava2-JRE-142.ppc-SR4.tgz
 * Place the file(s) in: /usr/portage/distfiles
 * Then run emerge ibm-jre-bin


I understand that i need to get this from the site. But the link gets me nowhere at al! I have
registered. And the download page just takes me to some page saying request will be processed
blah blah..... How can I just get hold of java??

thanks
Saurabh

Download the 32-bit iSeries/pSeries SR4 version and rename as the ebuild suggests.

You'll have to wait for them to allow the download, exactly as the page says. Sorry, but there's nothing wrong with the site, it's the US's strict export laws on some software. :p

I didn't had that problem

set your Country to usa (or EU/NL)

but my problem is that i don't have a portage 'thingy' for dev-java/ibm-jdk-bin-1.5
and the dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5 is masked by something and this doesn't help
Code:

# echo "=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5*" >> /etc/portage/package.unmask
# echo "=dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5*" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
# emerge =sun-jdk-1.5*


BTW i have a G3 imac (rev B)
