The version and versionless .jar files are mandated by the Java packaging guidelines draft. If you installed multiple versions of the rpm, presumably you're knowledgeable enough to configure the symlink to your liking. As far as I am concerned GCJ is a slow, obsolete java compiler / environment, and shouldn't be used anymore. PPC and x86 alike have icedtea/openjdk in rawhide, which is FOSS and performs much better than GCJ. What prevents the java packaging guidelines from becoming "real" instead of just a draft? -- Konrad Meyer <konrad@xxxxxxxxxx> http://konrad.sobertillnoon.com/
