I have been using java for years and never figured out how to work with the gcj java. I think the major problem is that java is distrubuted with the SUN Public Lic. I think that stops people from making simple RPM packages of the java runtime on public sites. Or there is some other reason I am not aware of.
What I have done in the past is went to java.sun.com. I download the full JDK or SDK. This allows a user to compile and run. The JRE is for running applications only.
I run the RPM or tar and install it saying yes to whatever questions it ask. Then I tar up the entire directory and make a shell script to install it on other machines. Java SDK is very portable itself the linux version will run on any linux kernel
2.4 2.6 and distro (as far as I have tested). All you need is the tar file. A path entry poining to the java executable and a JAVA_HOME entry for your java path.
** I only use java for running command line applications. My method works well for me. Running the full install as sun designs it to be run is a better option. **

You need to use either the Sun or IBM JRE. The console doesn't currently
work with gcj.
