Hello Kaffe maintainers, while investigating, I found the following: 1) kaffe build-depend on Build-Depends: ecj-bootstrap (>= 3.1.2-4), ecj-bootstrap-gcj (>= 3.1.2-4) [alpha arm hppa i386 ia64 powerpc s390 sparc] 2) debian/rules do CONFFLAGS += --with-ecj=/usr/bin/ecj 3) /usr/bin/ecj is an alternative provided by both ecj-bootstrap and ecj-bootstrap-gcj. 4) kaffe build fine on ia64 if /usr/bin/ecj point to ecj-bootstrap, but FTBFS if it point on ecj-bootstrap-gcj. 5) kaffe build fine on amd64 in both case (even though kaffe does not build-depend on ecj-bootstrap-gcj onthat plateform). So at the very least you can fix this bug by forcing the use of ecj-bootstrap on ia64. I am not quite sure what 1) is supposed to achieve: what is the point of requiring two versions of ecj and using only one of them randomly (where /usr/bin/ecj points to is a local setting) ? It looks like I missed something. However, on the face of it, the failure to build this package is a bug in ecj-bootstrap-gcj on ia64.
