Here is what I have done for Debian stable to solve such a java issue:
# The debian gcj-4.7-jdk package (or its dependencies) has
# some peculiar locations for java components so CMake needs
# some help in finding those.
export CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.7/include
export CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gcj-4.7-13
You may need something similar. Note this assumes this is the
first time you export and define these environment variables (which
is why I have responded out of order). Also, see further comments
about CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH and CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH below.

Here is what I do to solve similar issues for finding both qhull
and shapelib:
export CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH #if not exported before (see java case above)
export CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH #if not exported before (see java case above)
# Special qhull install:
CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=\
/home/software/qhull/install/include":$CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH"
CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=\
/home/software/qhull/install/lib":$CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH"
# Special shapelib install:
CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=\
/home/software/shapelib/install/include":$CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH"
CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=\
/home/software/shapelib/install/lib":$CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH"
This technique should also work fine for you if you adjust
locations to be correct for your system.
