Try: > > yum install system-switch-java The original poster was looking for a per-user solution to JVM switching. I'm guessing from the name (system-switch-java) that it switches the whole system's choice of java (javac, plugin, etc.) as opposed to just the user's. And that it probably requires some kind of elevated access permissions. Is it a frontend to the alternatives system? -- Richi Plana -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
