    Hi and thank you. Well it didn't go into detail but it appears the 
Jpackage is a rpm made from the Sun Inc. package. But it somehow looses 
it's ownership by Sun Inc. I guess this is a tricky thing to do.

    Looking at F8 there is a rpm for F8 that includes the current 
built-in Java. For some reason there is a need for iced-tea. This is not 
part of that writing.

But it does not seem to work as well as installing the jre from the Sun 
web site and say yes to their demands :-)
