[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] javac for opensrf?

[Boggs, John]

Hi all,

I've hit a wall in trying to install the latest opensrf. The instructions at http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.0/draft/html/ say "If you wish to include support for Python and Java, add the configuration options --enable-python and --enable-java."  Since it doesn't state whether those options are necessary for Evergreen, I decided to play it safe and include them, but now I'm coming up against the lack of a javac on my system when the build process tries to build json. (../opensrf-2.0.0/src/java/deps)

Was I wrong to try to include java and python (or at least java)? I've searched high & low to figure out how to get a javac on my box, and I'm coming up blank. (Debian Squeeze)

The error I get from the make process is:
  make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/opensrf-2.0.0/src/java'

  missing dependency !

I did have to go out & manually download json, as the wget in the subdirectory is no longer valid, but now I'm left with a bunch of .java files and no javac to compile them...

Thanks for any pointers you all have for me!
