Just a quick note to let you all know that building PyLucene on Ubuntu Linux Feisty Fawn 7.04 (32 bit) using the default gcj 4.1.2 as installed with their package manager produced a sane PyLucene. This is the first time I was able to build a sane PyLucene with an out-of-the-box gcj on Linux !

I still have to select Sun's JDK javac as the front-end compiler, this is what's done with the 'update-java-alternatives' command below.

Here are the steps I followed once I had the Live CD installed:

  - sudo apt-get install subversion
  - svn co http://svn.osafoundation.org/pylucene/trunk PyLucene
  - sudo apt-get install ant
  - sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk
  - sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-1.5.0-sun
  - sudo apt-get install g++
  - sudo apt-get install gcj
  - sudo apt-get install python-dev
  - edit PyLucene's Makefile to include:

# Linux (with gcc 4.1.2 and libgcj dynamically linked)
PREFIX=/usr
PREFIX_PYTHON=$(PREFIX)
LIBDIR_NAME=lib
GCJ_HOME=/usr
GCJ_LIBDIR=$(GCJ_HOME)/$(LIBDIR_NAME)
GCJ_STATIC=0
#LIB_INSTALL=libstdc++.so.7 libgcc_s.so.1
#DB=$(PYLUCENE)/db-$(DB_VER)
#PREFIX_DB=$(PREFIX)/BerkeleyDB.$(DB_LIB_VER)
ANT=ant
PYTHON=$(PREFIX_PYTHON)/bin/python

  - cd /usr/lib
  - sudo ln -s libstdc++.so.6.0.8 libstdc++.so.6
  - cd ~/PyLucene
  - make
  - sudo make install
  - make test
    all tests passed

Andi..
