no javac? > How can I fix this? dpkg --purge jdk-common jdk-static and 'dpkg -i' them again. If it does not fix your problem, have a look into /etc/alternative: you should have a link from /etc/alternative/java to /usr/bin/java-jdk. If not, create it. Also /usr/lib/jdk/i586/bin/ should be a symbolic link to /usr/bin/. I can't access my development machine right now, but I think this is a bug. Will have a look at this tomorrow, and upload a corrected version. NB: Has anyone tried toba or j2c? Both are ".class compilers", that is they create an ELF executable from java bytecode (That is you loose portability, but improve execution speed by a factor of 5). Anyone interested to get this as a package? & Happy New Year BTW. _(; -- - ** Linux ** +-------------------+ ** WAW ** - - [EMAIL PROTECTED] | RENARDIAS Vincent | [EMAIL PROTECTED] - - Debian/GNU Linux +-------------------+ http://www.waw.com/ - - http://www.debian.org/ | WAW (33) 4 91 81 21 45 - - | Luminy (33) 4 91 82 85 32 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
