Re: Bug#475669: Suggest informing the user
Hi Adam, My preference would be to fix the bug, of course! But with the bug being 180 days old now, it might be time to look at a workaround like this. Do you know, does Azureus work with any other versions of GIJ? I know that it works with Sun's VM.

Re: I installed Sun's j2re1.4.2_04 and my update-alternative --install did not work
I had a similar problem. RadRails extension for Aptana and Aptana require using Sun's Java. So I was trying to install the latest jdk and use the jre that comes with it. The rpm installed fine but when I did update-alternatives --config java, the new java version did not display. I finally figured out the syntax for adding to the list of available java alternitives using update-alternatives. The syntax that I used was: update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_06/jre/bin/java 18000 I got a clue from the /etc/alternitives dir and some stuff on the web. you can get what you need for the first arg by using which java the second is of course just java and the third you can narrow it down using locate -r "jre.*/java$" (assuming updatedb has been run since the java version you want was installed) or find /usr /opt ~ -path "*/jre/*" -name "java" (if the locate is not a good option, this will take a lot longer.) the forth is just a priority number that is used when you don't explicitly set which java runtime to use. not sure who the auto method works. after that you can do update-alternatives --config java and choose the one you want. hope this helps someone. :)

Yes. As far as I'm aware gcj works 100% on armel. Andrew. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Are gcj/gij/java-gcj-compat ok on armel?
Hi! I see gcj/gij/java-gcj-compat are now disabled on arm, and that dependent packages are being asked to exclude them as Build-Deps to eliminate java library bindings. Are they believed to work in the armel port? I was just going through the package lists finding that they have also been excluded on armel/armeb in some cases and not in others; for what it's worth, the "others" have almost all built ok on armel. Am I right in thinking that these clauses were either added automatically in an early armel==arm phase, or before gcj worked on armel, and that I should now ask for the armel exclusions to be reversed? thanks M Please cc replies as I'm not subscrived to debian-java -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
