Ok, you probably didn't have pkg-config installed, and that's why  
configure complained to set those variables. I'm afraid that doesn't  
work too well, it gives you exactly the problems you describe below.  
I have updated the documentation to say that you need pkg-config to  
install Gecode/J, as this makes life a lot easier.

On some systems, you need to install a package called ant-optional  
(e.g. on Debian). This will give you the dependency checker. I'll add  
that to the requirements, thanks.

Cheers,
