[jira] Commented: (THRIFT-649) Java documentation is installed in the wrong place when using autoconf 2.59

David Reiss commented on THRIFT-649:
------------------------------------

Thrift doesn't actually work properly with Autoconf 2.59.  It is only due to some sloppiness that it builds at all.  If you just want to use Thrift, please use our 0.2.0 release (or an instant release if you want the latest trunk) and bypass the ./bootstrap.sh step entirely.  If you want to track the trunk directly, you're going to have to install a newer version of autoconf.  Please reopen this issue with more details if neither of these solutions works for you.

> When creating rpms for centos, I noticed the java docs were being installed in /java instead of /usr/share/java.  This turns out to be a difference between autoconf 2.59 and 2.6x.  Since 2.60 is not available for Centos 5.x, I fixed this by adding a few paths in lib/java/Makefile.am.  This patch works on Centos5.x and Mac OX 10.6.2 (which used autoconf 2.64).
