Re: FreeBSD Port: Extraneous class files?

[Tony Christney <tchristney@xxxxxxxxx>]

I suspect that there are more jars there than needed.

On Mac OS X, I only include the following jars:
activation.jar, mail.jar, png.jar, skeetutil.jar, xerces.jar.

However, the classpath only includes activation.jar, mail.jar
and xerces.jar, so I would say that those are the only needed
jars.

I'll do some testing to see if which jars are no longer needed.
