There is no source bundle downloadable from the FreeBSD Foundation. What you can get is two different packaging formats. One suitable for pkg_add and the other suitable for manual unpackaging or installation via the diablo- ports. If you check the diablo-jdk15 Makefile you will see a NO_BUILD=yes definition. It just extracts the tar file using cpio. Cheers, Panagiotis
