Have you already built jclic from source? How? I tried to build it using gcj
a long time ago (that is, before GPLd java was announced)... but "failed".
Back then I also found other issues related to the packaging and licensing,
and sent a report upstream[1].

I'm interested in the package, but I was waiting for the inclusion of GPLd
java in Debian before trying to package it again.

Anyway, I would be glad to help co-maintain jclic if you are interested.
