+ An elegant set of language bindings to allow you to write
+ native GNOME/GTK applications in Java. Works with both
+ traditional Java VMs and also with GCJ, allowing the creation
+ of native Linux executable binaries.
+
+ These libraries all come from the java-gnome project, which in
+ turn is part of the official suite of GNOME language bindings.
+
+ As of java-gnome 2.8, the previously monolithic package was
+ split into numerous individual libraries to allow more
+ modular use. Those libraries are libgtk-java, libgnome-java,
+ libgconf-java, libglade-java, etc.
+
+ This ebuild is a meta package which simply depends on the
+ various libraries which make up the complete java-gnome suite.
+
+ In all likelihood (especially if you're developing apps) this
+ is what you want to emerge.
