Are you saying there is no hope for improvement?
Not with your suggestion solutions, no.
Then what solution is there other than switch to a distribution that
hasn't fragmented its upstream support community this way?
Try finding one more suitable for your magic needs. Good luck.
Sun Java 1.5 and the distro-imposed need for java-sun-compat is about as
mainstream and un-magic as you can get, which is why I use it as the
poster child for this discussion, but it's a repeating theme and the
details don't matter. Take just about anything that isn't included in
the fedora repository for whatever reasons - and there seem to be plenty
of reasons - and the distribution has made it harder than it should be
to install and maintain.
Do feel free to find ones that suit your purpose better and use them.
