Nothing new to see here, please move on. The java packages have been 
traditionally
mispackaged. They do not have signatures and the install/remove scriptlets barf.

The only hope is for the SL maintainers to step in and cleanup the mess.


That's actually what this was.  A cleanup.
We use the actual rpm's from Sun (yes, with permission). The j2sdk-1.4.2 rpm is ... well it's not pretty. It did alot of crazy things, and this update replaces it with jdk-1.5.0, which is alot better.

Anyway, that error is a normal error from the j2sdk when it is uninstalled.
