Hi,
the configure just checks the system dependencies to
build the system. The needed libraries are not checked
until the compile process, JFYI.
The questions was asked some month ago for a Debian
package as well. I tried to build Open-Xchange some
time ago with GNU Classpath, but specially for mail,
necessary methods and functions are just missing.
We are just providing a collaboration framework and
that is our focus. This means, if the functionality
is covered by any other package than Sun's Javamail
package one can build OX with this packages.
Currently - AFAIK - this is not possible.
The other question is what you mean with
"extensive free Java tools" ... for some
ppl. also packages offered by Sun/IBM/Bea are "free" ...
You mean "free" as in "free beer" but we would like to use software
that is "free" as in "freedom".
