Using a default Linux Mandrake 7.1 install (i586-pc-linux-gnu)
>Description:
I run configure, then make. During make, when I think is the
first time a .java file is attempted to be compiled I get
and error the the command 'gcj' isn't found. And indeed I
could not find it anywhere on my whole system with a 'find'.
It seems like 'gcj' wasn't even compiled at all, but I don't
know how make could've gotten that far if it wasn't. Anyhow,
here's the end of the make output, and I have tried starting
all over again, many times:

I really don't know what to do from this point, so I'm trying
here, it may just be some misconfiguration on my system, I
don't know, but any help would be great, thanks. =)

 Short answer: Gcc and Libgcj are still two separate trees and they
 need to be built, installed (and eventually pointed at) separately.
 This should change fairly soon.
 
 Long answer: I think I see what's wrong. You haven't built gcc yet
 (you have a gcc installed on your system, but it most likely doesn't
 feature gcj.) So first, get the gcc source tree (you could start by
 downloading a snapshot: http://gcc.gnu.org/snapshots.html ), build and
 install it ( http://gcc.gnu.org/install/index.html ), tell your system
 where gcj should be found (that is where you specified things should
 be installed during the configuration of gcc, suffixed by bin -- if
 you specified --prefix=<something> as an argument to `configure' then
 gcj will be install under <something>/bin after you did a `make
 install') by adjusting and properly exporting PATH and then you can
 configure and build libgcj, gcj will be picked up when needed if your
 PATH is right. As a sanity check, try `which gcj' first before
 configuring and building libgcj.

 And the gcj frontend must be configured when you build gcc (obviously).  The
 following will usually work:
 
 ../configure --prefix=... --enable-languages=c++,java --enable-threads
 
 Make sure ${prefix}/bin is in your PATH before any other gcc (usually
 /usr/bin/gcc).  Try a "which gcc" or "gcc --version" to make sure you are
 getting the right version.  (This has bitten me a few times.)

    I'm closing this PR.  It seems to be (1) solved, and (2)
    more of a system configuration problem than anything else.
