How are things going for bsd.port.mk ? I saw there has been an update on Ernst's page (2001-01-15 I think)... Recently I took a look upon NetBSD pkgsrc java system. Looks like the latest bsd.port.mk proposal more or less... I am not sure we came to some final decision about the location of libs and the CLASSPATH management. For CLASSPATH I remember we decided not to have it set automatically after installing a new java lib (because of some RMI aps and so). But in such a case there should be a unified location for all the java libs. Maybe /usr/local/lib or /usr/local/lib/java. Or maybe it could be easier to have all java-related in /usr/local/java. So /usr/local/java being the $PREFIX for all java-related ports. This way, there would be : /usr/local/java/lib (with GNU Trove, JSX...) /usr/local/java/linux-ibm-jdk13 /usr/local/java/jdk-1.1.8 /usr/local/java/doc/jdk-1.1.8 /usr/local/java/doc/jakarta-ant But then, where to put the java tools that are not java executables (e.g. jikes) which should be in $PATH (usually $PREFIX/bin) ? Also, maybe there should be something in the proposal to normalize the location of ports. I mean a java tool (like ant or mmake) should go in devel, lang, or java ? Same for java libs.
