Back when I did the first kaffe port, it depended on a specific version of
the jdk being at a specific spot. I think that's congruent to your
problem, since the linux libs are restricted to a specific name/spot also.
I just had a short script that did an md5 on the jdk and compared the
return with a stored value (I think in ${FILESDIR}/classes.zip.1.02.md5}.
If it failed the check, it printed an error message and quit. Would this
work for you?
Here's the code I used (I think it's been modified, I don't think things
like ${MD5} existed when I wrote it):
pre-install:
@( if test "`${MD5} ${PREFIX}/share/java/classes.zip | ${AWK} '{print $$4}'`" != "`cat ${FILESDIR}/classes.zip.1.02.md5`" ; then \
echo "kaffe REQUIRES the classes.zip file from ports/lang/jdk, version 1.02"; \
exit 1 ; \
fi)
