I use Debian. A self-compiled libreoffice refuses to use my GNU Java

Good question - maybe one of the jvmfwk*.diff ones in

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/build/tree/patches/dev300

adds the specific path? Rene/Petr, something that we'd better merge?


I would suggest to remove support for gcj at all. We have got many
gcj-specific bugs that were pretty hard to fix in the past. I strongly
suggest to use OpenJDK if you want a free JRE.


+1, I got a lot of random build failure before we switched to OpenJDK.

And if we do so, I think not only jvmfwk-disable-gcj.diff should be
moved to the repos, but configure.in (--enable-gcjaot, etc.) should be
updated as well.
