The gcc/gcj/ada/etc packaging is rather interesting. The VCS URL should point to an svn repository which, after updating debian/changelog and debian/control can build a few source packages for bootstrapping the gcc toolchain, including the gcj. If you just want to rebuild gcj, use apt-get source gcj-4.7 If you want to contribute to gcj packaging, prepare to learn a lot of funky Makefile magic of the whole gcc packaging (cc is 'compiler collection' which includes the gcj compiler) There should be a README.source in the repository or similar explaining a little bit how that packaging machinery works. It is not a trivial package by any means. -- Regards, Dmitrijs.
