You can cut that down to: export ALT_BOOTDIR=/home/ce/Programme/jdk7b75/ export PATH=$PATH:/home/ce/Development/tools/apache-ant-1.6.5/bin/ export ALT_OUTPUTDIR=/home/ce/jdk2d_try/jdk/build/linux-i586 make You don't need binary plugs or any of these import statements, and they are probably confusing things. -- Andrew :-) Free Java Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc.
