As long as you build on the machine where you ran autogen.sh this is no problem. When you want to use everything on a second machine you should use "make dist" and use the created classpath-VERSION.tar.gz on the other machine. It includes all files directly and no symlinks. This way you can use the latest autotools from fedora and build easily in your Maemo-scratchbox environemnt. Cheers, Michael -- http://www.worldforge.org/
