Package: java-gcj-compat-dev Version: 1.0.80-5 The libidn package in Debian build-depends on gcj:

Is this a problem with the java-gcj-compat-dev package? It appears as if it tries to run update-alternatives with some bad paths. Maybe this problem should have higher severity, because others might see similar problems too. It could be a problem in how the libidn package depends on gcj, though, and suggestions on that is welcome. /Simon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-gcc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
