I need sun-jdk 1.5 for a project but I cant get the ebuild to work.
The error I get is the following.

pdl distfiles # emerge sun-jdk
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.01 to /
>>> Unpacking source...
tail: +: invalid number of lines

Does some one have an idea for a fix.

You can always just download and install it manually

Yes that all the output.
And i'm running on a Intel x86.

Sorry I cant tell you any more, but thats the only error message I get.
Then the abould just prints out some the next error message in the ebuild file.

Full message:

Oke did a manual install, and edit the /env/java/20sun-jdk file.
And its working

This was because a bug with the profiles, it has been fixed (worked around)

if you sync in an hour or so, the ebuild should work

r there any plans on putting java 1.5 out of ~M? r there still problems holding it in there? how safe is it installing it without breaking things like eg openoffice, mozilla/firefox, etc?

thanx

Any luck in emerging this jdk 1.5 in SPARC?

The only problem is that ebuilds don't set the -source flag. So if you use "enum" as a name for let's say a java.util.Enumeration variable, it breaks.

If it breaks anything, it breaks the compile process. For these situations, have a 1.4 JDK handy.

That is not true, there is also a big problem of downgrading

False, just set the -target falg.
But that's an "issue" with all java versions. If you set target to 1.x it will not run on a jvm 1.y with y < x.

just to mention that I got this same error today trying to install java 5. i did just change my make.profile symlink per the portage recommendations (said something about my system having unsupported version and that i needed to run a few commands ). here's the output. i did an emerge sync and still same thing.
