This recipe promises to be quite simple, because the integration of CACAO VM is already a part of IcedTea itself. It will not require any patching or other complicated things.
We may need a real or emulated ARM device, which has Linux and any Java environment installed. We need Java to perform a javac compilation, which is a necessary part of the IcedTea building process.
We will download IcedTea, unpack it, and build it with the specified parameters, that's all.
First, let's get the latest IcedTea source from the server:
wget http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/source/icedtea-<icedtea_version>.tar.gzIt will download an archive.
Perform a checksum check if required.
Let's unpack an archive and copy it into the
icedteadirectory:tar -xzf icedtea-XXXX cd icedtea-XXXX
Then, you might have to install some dependency packages needed to make your IcedTea.
The given packages are those that were missing on the authors...
