Here is the command I came up with to add Sun's Java 1.5.0_16 as an
alternative on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.0 (a Red Hat derivative, which I
guess makes it a cousin of Fedora 8^), based on the alternatives man page
and some Googling:
# alternatives \
--install /usr/bin/java java
/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_16/bin/java 1500 \
--slave /usr/lib/jvm/jre jre /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_16/jre/
\
--slave /usr/lib/jvm-exports/jre jre_exports
/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_16/jre/lib/ \
--slave /usr/bin/rmiregistry rmiregistry
/usr/java/jdk1.5.0_16/jre/bin/rmiregistry
Make appropriate adjustments for your particular version of Java. Then if
you rerun
# alternatives --config java
it should provide you with the alternative you want. Select it and you
should be all set.
