Hello Again,
First of all, I checked (http://www.freebsd.org/java/), but it did not have the info I was looking for (it also didn't seem to have any contact info for their authors).
So, my question:
What is the difference between the Native Java JDK (java/jdk14), and the linux one (java/linux-sun-jdk14), besides the obvious fact that java/linux-sun-jdk14 is officially sanctioned by Sun?
Also, if java/jdk14 is a native binary build of Java, why does it require java/linux-sun-jdk14?
Finally, a more general question: why do ports require specific versions of java? For example: The OpenOffice port requires java/jdk-1.4.2p6_7, shouldn't any vendor's copy of version 1.4 of the JDK work?
Thank You,
