look in /usr/java
if you know what you want, you can create a symbolic link in /usr/bin
but that should never be necessary.
It's too bad that RedHat and Sun can't agree on where java should live.
For earlier versions of fedora, jpackage.org had a way to fix this

They are finally getting around to licensing it under GPL, things are

arbitrary locations? I never quite got the point of an RPM package that
didn't work.
