I just gave it a try and i've some problems to report, though i may not have used the appropriate compilation method. I just used the port makefile updated with the new PATCHLEVEL variable. Except a small problem regarding this new distfile without md5 checksum, the compilation goes well but i did not found the plugin compiled anywhere. Do you have to build it manually ? I tried to compile it using "gmake plugin" from work/j2sdk1.3.1/make and it compiled (after some tweaking with the location of gdk/gtk headers), but i have no clue on how to install it. tried to simlink it from /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/plugin, but i get an immediate core dump trying to open any page with a java applet (http://java.sun.com being one of those). about:plugins reports the plugin appropriately though. Could you please give some more specific instructions to those who are too keen to see this working and can't wait for the updated port ? ;-) Thanks.
