Red Hat is mis-written on the 'Net about as often as "separate" is
misspelled there. :)
Heh ;)

Thanks. I'll look at the man page when I get home (no FC here at
work). I always thought that the "gcj" program was the front-end to
the "gcc" program...
gcj is a gcc front-end, and while it can compile to bytecode it's not
very good at it. In Fedora we use ecj, Eclipse's compiler, to compile
to bytecode. We use gcj (indirectly, via aot-compile-rpm) to compile
that bytecode into native code.
Which *are* the Classpath packages?
There are none. Classpath's class library exists within libgcj's rpm.
Cheers,
Gary
