FreeBSD kasperletheater.damogran.local 6.0-STABLE FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #1: Fri Nov 18 11:15:35 CET 2005 lutz at kasperletheater.damogran.local:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/OMGOPTIMIZE  i386
>Description:
The print/pdftk needs gcj to build and thus builds lang/gcc41 as a dependency. Due to known (?) problems with lang/gcc41 building/installing gcj, that port has the lines

# FIXME: As of 20051202, installing libgcj nearly kills 1GB machines
WITHOUT_JAVA= yes

in its Makefile.

Thus, gcj is not built or installed and the build of print/pdftk fails because it cannot find gcj.

>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/print/pdftk && make
>Fix:
Fix lang/gcc41 to install gcj again?
