I think that a version-less symlink should be in /usr/lib/eclipse,
but additionally, the version-less symlink should also be in a directory
allowing to do a yum install for the file and get it right, therefore in 
a directory like:
/usr/lib/java
/usr/lib/java-ext
that are both owned by jpackage-utils. And empty in my setting. Would one 
of those directories be suitable? If no I propose to add another one, 
with name along
/usr/lib/java-jar
or
/usr/lib/java-lib


As a side note gcj depends on jpackage-utils but not ecj nor icedtea, 
maybe they should? Or is it up to the package that installs something in 
%{_libdir}/java* to depend on jpackage-utils?

With gcj sure and ecj, if I recall well. Should I test other VM?
(Is icedtea on F7?)

On F8 I tested gcj and icedtea, and both worked fine.
