To follow up on this thread for the list. I can no longer reproduce this configure error. It existed, really it did... :/
After a maintenance cycle on the machine and updating to the current trunk all was fine. The configure logic in the trunk did the right thing. When it did not find a java compiler/libs in the search paths it skipped over it and moved on. I'm still not sure what changed, I credit the maintenance cycle. -- Josh On Wed, May 23, 2012 at 9:08 AM, Josh Hursey <jjhur...@open-mpi.org> wrote: > Thanks.
