This seems easily doable. I'm a little weary of the notes about Java support: Before configuring, you must set your PATH environment variable to include javac. Note that it is not sufficient to include a symbolic link to javac in your PATH because the configuration process uses the location of javac to determine the location of the Java include files (for example, jni.h). I think with some JDKs javac is a symlink and with some it isn't. Any java guys want to chime in? Reassigning bugs due to lack of time. db-4 should work with java and tcltk support, and has it in useflags. Official inclusion is just depending on fixing some other packages to correctly detect db4 with versioned symbols. Do you think we need to add support for java and tcltk in db3 too? I guess I can close this bug |
