Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1218:
--------------------------------------------

- split jdk manifest from jdk6 and jdk7 in two: not everyone wants to have jdk7 
installed by default.
- Let's use a permanently named link pointing to JAVA7_HOME instead of 
{{+export JAVA7_HOME=/usr/lib/jdk1.7.0_45}}. With the current approach someone 
will have to change this every single time when the JDK version is getting 
updated. Do something like {{/usr/lib/java7-latest}} instead

bq. And, FWIW, I had a tough time getting Oracle's JDK6 rpm to be installed 
side-by-side
There's an easy way of getting binary distribution of JDK from Oracle website 
which doesn't require any complications with repos, etc. Check [this 
post|https://ivan-site.com/2012/05/download-oracle-java-jre-jdk-using-a-script/]

The rest seems ok. Thanks
