Hi Niko, I noticed that your recent changes have broken the translation of pypy-jvm on tuatara, because now pypy-jvm requires jna, and it's not installed there. I tried to download jna from the web but I failed to understand what package(s) I need; do I need only jna.jar and/or the platform specific jar? I wonder whether it might make sense to include the .jar directly in our svn repo, to drop the external dependency on jna and simplify the life of those that want to build pypy-jvm by themselves. ciao Anto _______________________________________________ pypy-dev@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
