[kaffe] Configure problem with ecj in internal classpath configuration

[Wolfgang Baer]

Hi all,

I have finished the debian package for the upcoming 1.1.7 release and
it works without a problem on my dev box.

Giving it a try with pbuilder (this simulates the debian build process)
it fails during configure. It stops during configuration of the internal
classpath copy due to not finding a compiler (although its correctly
configured with ecj and ecj is available):

checking for gcjh... no
checking for javah... no
checking jni_md.h support... yes
checking for gcj... no
checking for jikes... no
checking for kJC... no
checking for gcjx... no
configure: cannot find javac, try --with-gcj, --with-jikes, --with-kjc, or 
--with-gcjx
configure: error: /bin/sh 
'/tmp/buildd/kaffe-1.1.6.cvs20060109/build-tree/kaffe-1.1.6.cvs20060109/libraries/javalib/external/classpath/configure' 
failed for libraries/javalib/external/classpath
make: *** [stampdir/configure-jthreads] Error 1
pbuilder: Failed autobuilding of package

On my development machine it works as there is also jikes for other tasks
installed and it will fall back to jikes in configure - but uses ecj to
actually compile the classpath tree.

Anybody knows why the --with-ecj=/usr/bin/ecj configure option is not correctly
recognized by the classpath configure - or why there is no test for ecj done ?

Here is the configure line for the internal classpath tree:
