java andrew@operationaldynamics.com Andrew Cowie An elegant set of language bindings to allow you to write native GNOME/GTK applications in Java. Works with both traditional Java VMs and also with GCJ, allowing the creation of native Linux executable binaries. These libraries all come from the java-gnome project, which in turn is part of the official suite of GNOME language bindings. As of java-gnome 2.8, the previously monolithic package was split into numerous individual libraries to allow more modular use. Those libraries are libgtk-java, libgnome-java, libgconf-java, libglade-java, etc. This ebuild is a meta package which simply depends on the various libraries which make up the complete java-gnome suite. In all likelihood (especially if you're developing apps) this is what you want to emerge.
