Matt dealt with the xml-commons-apis issue. I would rather not risk providing anything provided by Sun's RPM. The best way to make OpenNMS available for Fedora is to maintain packages directly in the Fedora repositories. Alternatively, you could recommend to users who absolutely must use Sun's proprietary JDK that they install JPackage-formatted RPMs instead of Sun's RPM.
