Hi,
On my work on the LICENSE and NOTICE files I stumble over file
main/filter/source/config/tools/merge/pyAltFCFGMerge
I am not sure, if we really need this file:
- A look into its usage in
main/filter/source/config/fragments/makefile.mk reveals that it is
only needed, if we are building without Java.
As far as I know Java is a build prerequisite. Or am I wrong here?
If it is a build prerequisite, then we can get rid of this file.
I had build on Windows 7 and Ubuntu and had to install Java for it.
Does somebody had experience on certain platforms building without Java?
FWIW, there is a configure option to disable java but it's broken:
attempting to use it breaks the build in ant.
