+</I>I wondered about this when I took a look at some Java packages (e.g.
+maven) to see how easy they would be to upgrade. A huge amount of
+complexity was introduced by the desire of the existing RPMs to produce
+a gcj version of the tool involved.
+
+I can certainly see the appeal of gcj as &quot;compiled java&quot; for some target
+audiences even if most of us developers can't afford not to be
+developing and testing with more mainstream JDKs, but it's not clear to
+me that gcj needs to be a part of the install for every Java-based tool.
+
+I'm not that familiar with gcj, but I wonder if there couldn't be
+separate packages which recompile individual tools under it where
+appropriate in some automated fashion rather than forcing every Java
+tool packager to do this.
