After downloading the 0.5.4.1 zip to an Ubuntu 11.04 system.
python setup.py build
running build

running build_ext
building '_jpype' extension
cc1plus: warning: command line option "-Wstrict-prototypes" is valid for Ada/C/ObjC but not for C++

compilation terminated.
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

However, the Synaptic manager installs correctly, I think.

Problem is, that setup.py contains a fixed reference to a java-version in the following line:

self.javaHome = '/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.08' # Ubuntu linux

Solution: This should be changed to:

self.javaHome = '/usr/lib/jvm/java'

With this change, gcc compiles JPype.
