Installing java-gnome on Ubuntu

TODO: This will work once someone actually packages java-gnome 4.0 for Ubuntu

java-gnome is part of the official GNOME language bindings suite, and as such should be present in any recent Ubuntu system.

The following command will install the latest released version of the bindings library:

# apt-get install java-gnome

As java-gnome 4.0 is a completely new from-the-ground-up implementation, it depends on a very modern version of GLib, GTK, and the other libraries in the GNOME stack. Being the remarkable Linux distribution it is, Ubuntu typically ships very recent releases of GNOME, so you will certainly have all the necessary prerequisites on any recently installed or upgraded system.
