I just looked. Demo apps, man pages, etc. are all in different packages. Even 64-bit support is in a different package. That package is pretty light as it is and it looks like the only heavy parts are a bunch of images/fonts/gnome integration. The big one of course is rt.jar, which after install is: $ ls -lh /usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/rt.jar -rw-r--r-- 1 root bin 46M Sep 25 03:06 /usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/rt.jar In theory, the Java kernel project over in OpenJDK should deliver a smaller, download-on-demand JRE. I don't know if they're targeting that functionality to all platforms though. Through that, they're breaking up rt.jar. Ironically, the current Live CD has SUNWjss: Network Security Services for Java (JSS), which is consuming a precious 1.3M even though it's useless without a JRE. :) - Matt -- Matt Ingenthron - Web Infrastructure Solutions Architect Sun Microsystems, Inc. - Global Systems Practice http://blogs.sun.com/mingenthron/ email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 310-242-6439 _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
