[EMBOSS] Installation help

[Michael Black]

When I moved to Tiger on my powerbook, I just did a straightforward  
update, then applied the Java 1.5 update
manually (since SU never saw it).

The path to Java is still

/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions

then there are the following version directories:

lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  wheel    5 Apr 30 14:51           1.3 -> 1.3.1
drwxr-xr-x    8 root  wheel  272 Apr 30 14:51        1.3.1
lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  wheel    5 Apr 30 14:51           1.4 -> 1.4.2
drwxr-xr-x    8 root  wheel  272 Jan 26 15:22        1.4.2
lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  wheel    5 May 12 11:15          1.5 -> 1.5.0
drwxr-xr-x    8 root  wheel  272 May 12 11:15       1.5.0
drwxr-xr-x    6 root  wheel  204 May 16 19:47       A
lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  wheel    1 Apr 30 14:51           Current -> A
lrwxr-xr-x     1 root  wheel    5 Apr 30 14:51           CurrentJDK - 
 > 1.4.2

When I recompiled jemboss/EMBOSS (standalone installation) with the  
new developers tools,
I used /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2

I tried compiling with 1.5, but got all sorts of java errors when I  
tried to launch jemboss.
