[Biojava-l] linux

[Paulo Nuin]

Hi

Try to grab a JDK from sun (java.sun.com) for your Linux dist. Normally it
will put the necessary binaries in the /usr/bin directory.
It is the easier way to do it.
Other thing you can do is to define where is your java executable and make a
"ln" (link) in your /usr/bin directory.
This was the way to correctly make my perl work with any script.

If everything fails look in the how tos at the java site or linux files

Cheers
