Red Hat fixed their bug:

Did you look at a system before posting? Or just shoot from the hip?
No, I installed Sun java on a Centos 5 box, noticed that tomcat didn't
start, googled for the error message about the missing index and found
that it was a known problem.
[herrold@centos-4 ~]$ lynx -dump
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2007-0365.html | grep -i srpm
SRPMS:

[herrold@centos-4 ~]$
Don't you need an up2date subscription to get that stuff?
And they have a packaged Sun Java available
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2007-0223.html
(that's the link for rhel4 but I think there is one for 5 too).
[herrold@centos-4 ~]$ lynx -dump
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2007-0223.html | grep -i srpm
SRPMS:
[herrold@centos-4 ~]$
no linked SRPMS
And that.
... cannot prove the fix exists to me so far. Sad that Red Hat feels it
has to play these games.
If they didn't, we wouldn't need CentOS...
Johnny notes it has been updated and is in updates which have been
issued over a week ago -- it is a convenience fix, and not a security
matter
Yes, tomcat is very secure when it won't run at all. And yes it would
be more convenient if it worked.
Les ... you have an open bug -- you think it is fixed upstream. No
SRPMS are noted in teh fix release which you seemingly were able to
find. The tests I did, you can do.
I don't have the up2date subscription.
Why not lend a hand and point to available source RPMs rather than carp
on the mailing list on stale matters?
If you dislike non-security related updates notifications, write a tool
to provide you information on the changes.
If google doesn't know, nothing I write is going to find it. This is
what I found
https://www.zarb.org/pipermail/jpackage-discuss/2007-June/011548.html
and there have been several other threads on the jpackage list about
similar issues in rpms built on FC6 and RHEL5.
But while we are sort-of on this topic, can someone explain the jpp in
the rpm package names? Some of the posters on the jpackage list seem to
have been confused about the source of their packages. Does jpp mean
something unrelated to the jpackage repo?
