So use something else. You do know how to add and remove rpm packages
right?  ;-)

Ah come on Les. You know why they don't include Sun's Java. For pretty
much the same reason they don't include your beloved codecs. Non FOSS.
And what specific Fedora provided java application does not work?

And I will say this. The Icedtea has improved a lot. But as long as
people *immediately* bailout things are not going to improve. Did you
report (bugzilla) this tragic event you had? If you did not just how do
you expect anyone to fix it?
