That's not what I wrote above.

Most likely.  But if that package has put the JNI headers somewhere your
compiler doesn't know about, you probably need to set CPPFLAGS
appropriately.

For example, I find it necessary (on Fedora) to do:

        $ configure CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/lib/jvm/java/include -I/usr/lib/jvm/java/include/linux'

…to get the necessary bits.  The requisite header files may be in a
different location on a different distribution and/or using a slightly
different Java package.  The README does mention this.
