This proposed patch makes 4 changes to the find-and-nativify in java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-40jpp_14rh.
- Generates a database as it goes, rather than forcing the spec file
writer to write a similar script to build the db.
- Qualifies each lib with the package name, to avoid name collisions in
Provides. (Which suggests the thought that since package names _must_ be unique by design in rpm - isn't it then sufficient to generate libs in %{_libdir}/%{name} instead of as %{_libdir}/%{name}/full/path/to/jar ?)
- Ignores jars which are symlinks (they might not even be in the package,
and if they are, you will end up compiling them more than once.)
- You can set the SKIPTAR environment variable to skip the tar building,
for more efficient rpm builds.
I have a handy utility script to post next which assumes some of these changes, so I will wait to see what happens to this patch first.

- By default, the generated database will assume libraries will go in /usr/lib.
- To change this, set LIBDIR to the appropriate directory.
- Set SKIPTAR=y to skip tar file creation.

It's a lot quicker to build individual dbs and mrget them at the end.
