High Tea

Good bye Java

Since Oracle has some damn policies for distribution, it’s not possible to download it from Links or whatever to my remote server. Another story on how a company destroyed a product…


!!! dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.32 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.

* Fetch failed for ‘dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.32’, Log file:
* ‘/var/tmp/portage/dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.32/temp/build.log’
* Package: dev-java/sun-jdk-1.6.0.32
* Repository: gentoo
* Maintainer: java@gentoo.org
* USE: amd64 elibc_glibc kernel_linux multilib source userland_GNU
* FEATURES: sandbox
* Due to Oracle no longer providing the distro-friendly DLJ bundles, the package
* has become fetch restricted again. Alternatives are switching to
* dev-java/icedtea-bin:6 or the source-based dev-java/icedtea:6
*
* Please download jdk-6u32-linux-x64.bin from:
* http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u32-downloads-1594644.html
* and move it to /usr/portage/distfiles

Of course, if you get the the link from the Web page on your local browser, and get the file url on the remote server:

wget http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/6u32-b05/jdk-6u32-linux-x64.bin
# head jdk-6u32-linux-x64.bin
<html>
<head>
<title>Unauthorized Request</title>

How I fixed it: emerge -av --depclean dev-java/sun-jdk virtual/jdk virtual/jre dev-java/java-config

New type of scam?

Looks like scammers are always imaginative when trying to get money…

The email was badly formatted (some headers were in the body), and the domain in question is parked and has almost no traffic.
