hi,

my system is gentoo amd 64. java-config -L show i have two VMs on my system:

The following VMs are available for generation-2:
1) IcedTea6-bin 1.7.1 [icedtea6-bin]
*) Sun JRE 1.6.0.18 [sun-jre-bin-1.6]

but when i ran javac, it says:

* javac is not available for sun-jre-bin-1.6 on x86_64
* IMPORTANT: some Java tools are not available on some VMs on some architectures

we do not have javac on amd64 system? how to fix this?
i did not find much use information on http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/java.xml

javac, the java compiler, is not avaialable for any JRE, the *runtime*
environment.

You need to install a JDK, the *development* kit which contains the
compiler. Note that if you install JDK, you don't need a JRE anymore as
the JDK includes all the component of JRE.
