[Java-gnome-developer] configure changes prevent discovering of gcj version

[Luca De R. <pie...@li...>]

Hi,
At first I want to say I'm glad to see more libraries being added, now
java-gnome depends on gtkhtml too ;)

Unfortunately after 0.8.2 the configure script was amended, and the line
that is supposed to discover gcj version no longer works...

It was previously patched by me to read:
 gcj_version=`$GCJ --version 2>&1 | grep GCC | sed 's/gcj (GCC)
\([0-9]*\)\.\([0-9]*\)\.\([0-9]*\).*/\1.\2.\3/'`

After 0.8.2 it reads:
gcj_version=`$GCJ --version 2>&1 | grep GCC | sed 's/gcj (GCC)
\(0-9*\)\.\(0-9*\)\.\(0-9*\).*/\1.\2.\3/'` which fails to discover gcj
version on Redhat9: perhaps we have different versions of sed which
behave differently? Or maybe this was a typo...If it's not please could
someone explain me why this changes were made?

Thanks,
Luca.
