JDK16 installation on FreeBSD 7

[fronty]

Hi,

I'm trying to install JDK16 on my FreeBSD 7 box. Got all packages from Sun plus patchset almost without without problems, but now make complains about patchset existing in distfiles.

Output of make, ls and file:
# Make output

Due to the Sun licence, you need to fetch the package manually (google for the download location) and put it in the disfiles dir. Then you shouldnt have any other problem, the installation process after that is quite straight forward.

or you could wait a few weeks for freebsdfoundation to release the pkg!

Whatwhat, fetched all it told me to fetch. Except that timezone update thingie, couldn't easily find the version it wanted and didn't want to fight with checksums.

Guess that's what I'm going to do, then. o.o

Here is a more-or-less direct link to the patchset.

I am confused by the fact that the port attempted to download it directly. If they are now allowed to provide it without a clickwrap, then they should have set the download location.

Hmm, that's interesting. I compiled and installed this a couple of days ago.

had been struggling with jdk16 installation on a new install of 7.0 for a weekend until someone showed me how to do it - worked like a champ with very manageable hiccups.
