ok, so i exported the path with export JAVA_HOME=/home/ahelmy/jdk1.5.0 then i checked which jar, it said /usr/bin/jar which is a link that points to /usr/java/jdk1.5/bin/jar which is the correct path so then i remade the file using jar -cf, but the bloody bastard (MANIFEST.mf) still says Created-By: 0.92-gcc WTF should i do now? <div>On 27/03/06, Kazimieras Vaina <<a href="mailto:kazimieras.vaina@gmail.com">kazimieras.vaina@gmail.com </a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I did some searching and found that java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-devel contains jar program.
