Yes, the problem should be caused by having 1.6.0 already installed. I ran into a similar problem recently. This is a JAva, not a JPackage issue. Java versions can coexist on the same machine but must be installed in order. You can install 1.6.x on a machine running 1.5.x but you cannot install 1.5.x on a machine with 1.6.x. The only workaround I found is to uninstall 1.6.x and resintall both.

Last night's update of my SL4 based machines showed machines with the

java-1.5.0-sun-compat as being a requirement.  Why is that?

I have a related problem - my yum updates are failing with the message

Error: Missing Dependency: jdk = 2000:1.5.0_14-fcs is needed by

+java-1.5.0-sun-compat


The problem seems to be that I have a newer version of the JDK (1.6.0)
installed locally.  Is there any way to work around this problem
without uninstalling the new JDK?

I'm beginning to sound like a stuck record here.

The JPackage packages of java coexist perfectly.
