No JDK 1.6 for FreeBSD-8 (yet)

I am currently testing:

Code:
FreeBSD 8.0-BETA3 FreeBSD 8.0-BETA3 #0: Sat Aug 22 02:00:45 UTC 2009     [email]root@mason.cse.buffalo.edu[/email]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

and jdk does not build properly:

Code:
/usr/local/diablo-jdk1.6.0/bin/java -version
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Unable to load ZIP library: /usr/local/diablo-jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/amd64/libzip.so

I guess there will appear some "8"-versions on this site:

http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml

that might solve the problem?
 
diablo-jdk-1.6.0.07.02_5

is installed and the "unloadable" file exists but maybe the "7"-version does not work on a "8"-system?
 
If you want to get rid of the setting, you can use diablo-jdk to bootstrap the build of java/jdk16. Once installed you can remove diablo-jdk and restore the configuration.
