OK. I am confused. You say there is now ready to yum a jpackage for
F8 that has the infrastructer for using the d/l Sun java. This is what I
decided was needed. So please if you can give us the way to yum this
file(s).
I hope it is not the same files F8 comes with :-)
check weather jpackage-util is installed on your machine an then visit
www.jpackage.org/yum.php
Or just download the appropriate
java-1.x.x-sun-compat-1.x.x.y-zjpp.i[nnn}.rpm, which corresponds to the
Sun Java version you are using. and install it
e.g. http://www.jpackage.org/browser/rpm.php?jppversion=5.0&id=489

Well I looked for jpackage-util and got this:
[root@k5di ~]# yum install jpackage-util
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
No package jpackage-util available.
Nothing to do
[root@k5di ~]#
Then went to the web page and it has a special file for getting to
the jpackage.repo which I balk at because new repo's are not good as a
rule. Since I did set up my java in a manual way I'm not sure I want to
mess up what works :-)
