Solved Can't find java/eclipse in packages.

Should be there, but nothing.
Can somebody say me what's wrong with it?
It's critical for me, because it's the only way to install Apache Directory Studio on FreeBSD.
 
What version of FreeBSD are you using? I just checked my ports collection and it's still there alright (note: this has 0 meaning for the package repository!) so I'm wondering if your version could be related.

When in doubt we can always check Freshports.

(edit)

I did some digging (<= Java fan here) and I discovered this: they somewhat recently went from 4.34 to 4.35 so it's definitely still active / relevant. But I did notice this: ONLY_FOR_ARCHS. If you're still on i386 (nothing wrong with that!) then that could also be a reason for this.

There is no Eclipse package for amd64 in 14.x, see java/eclipse

That's interesting, because the port itself specifically mentions "ONLY_FOR_ARCHS= aarch64 amd64" which makes me assume that this should also reflect on the package. Also note that the page you linked only mentioned the build process.

Even so....

hishnik : You can always build the port manually, from what I can tell that should have no ill issues (for now), but you may need to keep it in mind during future updates.

I did, but inattentively. Didn't notice packages-OSVersion support matrix.

I'm on amd64, so it should be fine.
Don't know why the package is absent :(
