And I still don't understand what the heck is the link /usr/bin/java, 
/usr/bin/javac provided by the libgcj supposed to do. I mean, I read about 
the /etc/alternatives stuffs and what it supposes to do, but in all 
practicality, the command java and javac from Redhat do nothing. How is it 
suppose to work? could someone explain ? 

(BTW, I also just removed the symlink so my PATH would pick up my own Sun's 
JDK install).

Thanks.
