Yes it seems to be. I got a little more time this morning. I tested a bit. Indeed if the environment variable "CLASSPATH" is unset, it has the same effect as if it set to ".". This is distinctively different from having it set to "". By examining your patch, this does indeed solve exactly this. You correctly fixed this line only. Also, I found that if share/java/classpath is empty, this is not a problem. Having the CLASSPATH set to ":." is the same as having it set to ".". Your patch is correct. Thank you! I have not been able to test the file completely, since I was not able to find which package installs the BASEPATH/share/java/classpath file. Sorry if I added some confusion by stating it didn't work for me. I had little time to investigate, and barely realised it was because I didn't have a problem in the first place. (I'm only the messenger here). You are correct not to include /Library/Java/Extensions. This was just an example to the poster on the java-dev list, not suggested as a fix for fink.
