Hello rawhiders!
As of March 13, java-1.7.0-icedtea has been removed from Rawhide and
replaced with java-1.6.0-openjdk. This version should be better
compatible with upstream java.
Unfortunately, the package changeover doesn't happen by default for
people who already have IcedTea installed[1]. You can do this manually.
In most cases you'll just need to do:
yum erase java-1.7.0-icedtea{,-plugin}
yum install java-1.6.0-openjdk{,-plugin}
Hope that helps, and happy testing,
-w
[1] Normally this is handled by increasing the Epoch (if the packages
have the same name) or adding an Obsoletes: (if they don't).
In this case, the packages have different names (technically
"java-1.7.0-icedtea" is the name of the package, not "java") and we
don't really want to force the OpenJDK to replace IcedTea in *all* cases
where it's installed on someone's system.
